Friday Night Gathering July 10th

[Quiet One]

I talked to the manager at Chop's Grille and Tap House and here is what I have set up so far:

Reservation for 20 people in our own private dining room, with a full menu starting at 6pm Friday night.  It is reserved for "RF Group".  

I kinda need a head count of who is planning on being there, so I can let her know if this will be enough space.

So, who's gonna join us??

Scotsman & Lady Guinness and Autumn & Alyssa
Lady de la Warr & Prince Oswyn Dagworth
Mike & Joanne
Quiet One & Jessi
Arianwyn & Master Ravyne
Athena
Terry Griffith (tenative)
Chriscat (tenative)
Rahne + 2
The Ferret + 2? (tenative)
LadyhawkontheHill
Lady Ann
Stephanie & Kate



Here is their web site:  http://chopsgrille.com/

They have a link with directions :http://chopsgrille.com/findus.htm
It's basically the RT 534 exit off of interstate 90, go north (opposite direction from faire) and it's on the right hand side.

[Athena]

I might be making this one, I'll know for sure in a week or so. Can't wait to see everyone!

[Arianwyn]

Fabulous!!! I see we are on the list.....see you all soon!

Arianwyn

Lest you think we are just being "quiet" (and would we take that away from you?)  - we will not be able to attend Friday night, but will see you folks for tailgate on Saturday morning.   

[Scotsman]

Thank for the add ... we will be there with bells (or something else) on.

[Arianwyn]

Thank you so much for organizing this Quiet....and providing directions....we'll see you there!

[Terry Griffith]

I'm going to try to make it.  After the drive from Pittsburgh, I'll have to set up my stage in the Shire and then get the Hank and Bun's to set up the tent.  I'll have to find out how far it is from there.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

[Scotsman]

I'll have to find out how far it is from there.

Terry, it is real close to faire. The same exit on the Interstate I believe.

I just made my reservations at the Comfort Inn. Everything else without rats and roaches is booked except for smoking King which I am not. I don't know if I'll be coming alone or with a daughter. She wanted to bring Lindsay (the other Arsene magician assistant) but she didn't work it out and it's getting too late to book anything so I went ahead and did it anyway. If I'm by myself, there's a good possibility that I will be lost somewhere on the plains of O-HI-O like the last time. I was rescued by someone who appeared magically out of nowhere and drew me a map. If not, I may make it to the ChopHouse, but don't want to take a seat from someone you know better, so I'll keep track up until time to leave. So don't count me.

[chriscat53]

Hey gentles!
       My only other time at GLMF I didn't really know about a camp. Can I pull up and get dressed there if I drive in alone? Don't like to do it in front of patrons. Ruins the mood.

[Scotsman]

If not, I may make it to the ChopHouse, but don't want to take a seat from someone you know better, so I'll keep track up until time to leave. So don't count me.

Well, we are staying at the Hampton right across the hwy from you. We welcome your company and can arrange to pick you up and drop you off if you like.

[Scotsman]

Can I pull up and get dressed there if I drive in alone? Don't like to do it in front of patrons. Ruins the mood.

I know we usually get to the lot before most paytrons ... we dress right there ... no problem ... we kind of have it down to a science though.

I imagine Mike & JoAnne (Sir Dante & Lady Mae) will be there with their RV. They are usually pretty accommodating.

[Rahne]

I think we can make it.  We are planning to get to Bunnie and Hank's mid afternoon to set up camp.  How do we get to the Chop House from there?  There will be 3 of us.  Is this with or without garb?

Is it located there just off of interstate 90, (coming from Erie)turn right instead of left to get to faire?

[Quiet One]

I know Hank & Bunnie are in Huntsburg, but not exactly sure where.  This is 7 miles past the faire entrance on rt 534 just over the bridge for 90 coming up from the south.


  There will be 3 of us.  Is this with or without garb?

mostly with out garb

Is it located there just off of interstate 90, (coming from Erie)turn right instead of left to get to faire?

Yes and it should be on the right hand side.

[Lady Guinness]

Hello everyone...I am looking forward to seeing some friendly faces and enjoying a icy cold beverage with you guys! I have been off the boards for some time (damn mundane world!) and now am getting in gear for faire. This trip to GLMF will be even more special because my daughter will be joining us. I have told her so much about this faire. Friday night sounds wonderful...thank you quiet one for organizing this. HUGS!!

[Quiet One]

Friday night sounds wonderful...thank you quiet one for organizing this. HUGS!!

It's great to see you back, Lady Guinness!  I'm looking forward to next weekend.

[Lady de la Warr]

You can add myself and Sir Oswyn to the Friday night festivities.

And for the record, I'm pretty sure Sir Dante and Lady Mae will also be attending.

So that's 4 more for Chop House for sure 

I may ask one of the faire vendors if he wants to join us - don't know if he will or not (I need to hook up with him Friday night as he is making me a special pouch for one of my garb accessories).

[Rahne]

Thank you Quiet One for the clarifications and directions.  We will look forward to meeting you all around 6 on Friday.

[Scotsman]

Q.O. add one more to our count ... my niece, Alyssa.

[Quiet One]

Got it all updated.  18 people for definately going to be there and 7 for maybe going to be there.

I just got home from a weekend at Ky. Highlands Ren Faire, but I'm really looking forward to opening weekend at GLMF!

[bosswench]

Hey Kate and I will be in town that evening! if ppl are still around i hope to get to meet up with some or all! Cant wait!

[Athena]

I'll be there! Some of us will be getting off work when the festivities start, is it OK to show up later in the evening?

[Quiet One]

I don't think it will be a problem.  There's gonna be 8 M'Cracks there.  I don't think I ever remember an early evening with them.

[Scotsman]

There's gonna be 8 M'Cracks there.  I don't think I ever remember an early evening with them.

I know Lady G and I will probably not stay out too late for we are early birds. That said, we will do our best to keep you all company for as long as possible.

[BeerBlessings]

Heh.. I wish I would remember to check these forums more often... I'm a frakking local, and I just found out about this outing... But then again, I'm not sure exactly *where* this place is...

So I might poke in later on. My schedule is sooo in flux right now, it's not funny. (Don't ya love it when other people make plans for you, but neglect to tell you what they are?!?)

Oh, and Terry, I'll be sending you a PM shortly..
