Blushing - another suggestion that might interest you is to visit the city's new Rivers Casino on the North Side.  It just opened one week ago and is receiving positive reviews.  It's 75% non-smoking too!   I've yet to make it there myself...

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone.  Blushing, I hope you like our little festival.  I usually start at the pub, I'll be wearing my RF pin as well, see you there.

Thank you all ... I think it will be a fun visit indeed.   ;D  And I will be sure to take plenty of photos to share!

Right now I'm trying to decide if I can possible fit all the necessities for the weekend in a single carry-on suitcase and a backpack.  This could be interesting.

Huzzah Blushing! It will grand to see you and all of our Faire friends in Morelandshire very soon.  I am excited to be able to enjoy the shire this season as Morgans Bounty has sailed on and I and my crew will be free to enjoy things like the JOUST! (when not at the pub of course!)

Just wear your garb through DIA.  Then again boots in security... not to mention Grommits and steele boning.  Well it was a thought!  Let me know if you need hamsters.

Garb through airport security ... that WOULD be an adventure!

So, should I haul my crazy-heavy cloak out for the weekend?  I have a light one, but it is certainly NOT useful amid water.

I'm getting excited ... I need a faire fix!  =)

Blushing, it is to be sunny and 80 all weekend.  It may be a little chilly in the mornings and cool off in the evenings.  I'd leave the heavy cloak at home.

I'm still packing, but that's perfectly normal a few days before a faire adventure.  I've been checking the weather too ... that humidity is a bit scary!

Blushing, I just saw the forecast for this weekend.  Wonderful!  Sunny Saturday, high of 74, very cool in the morning.  Sunday a little cloudy, high of 73, also cool overnight.  The humidity hasn't even been a factor the past couple of days.

So, as you can see, we have ordered up a perfect weekend for your visit.  Aardvark Arthur is waiting to meet you.  Please look me up, blue gown, pearls and shiny thing on head.  Terry is playing the Pirates Pub and is also eager to make your accquaintance.

Blushing, I will be out in front of the gate by 10AM.  Please be sure to find me and say "Hello."  It will be wonderful to meet you.

Hello Blushing!  Please look for me at the pub on Saturday, I'll be wearing red and black and an RF pin.

I'm so anxious for your arrival!  and Annie the Nanny too!  Call me when you get here!  Muah!
Cause, "Cake or death?" That's a pretty easy question.
Anyone could answer that.
"Cake or death?"
"Eh, cake please."

I actually fit everything into carry-on luggage ... which probably means I've forgotten something ...

I'll be wearing red and blue skirts, and either a gold or white shirt, and a Pendragon green canvas bodice.  And my hat - sporting my R/F pin - which will be worn through the airports.

Here's to a fantastic weekend!

It was such a joy to meet you and Annie!  And CORF and Nameless One, as well :)  Hope to someday make the journey to visit your home faire and spend a bit of time chatting with you again. 

Blessings!
