For those of you who don't have a warm cloak, consider picking up some polar fleece from Joanns or Walmart. It's pretty cheap and won't require any sewing. If you have any pieces leftover bring them along to faire. I guarantee you'll find some poor freezing soul in peasant garb to pass it along to.

Stay warm and have fun all.

Wine and Alchemy is suddenly going to be here? That's news to us. Last I heard they were doing Arizona because of contract issues with BARF.

[Anna Iram]

I just noticed that. No scheduled times...just "all day". I thought they were at AZRF too.

[Lady DArbanville]

Yeah, well, if Peterson gets low attendance, he has only himself to blame for bumping it up a week.
I'll refrain from name calling but this was about the most half-arsed thing I have ever seen. Everyone knows February sucks.

Oh, and why hasn't the website been updated?
Twig is not at our faire, I don't care to see Twig and I'm tired of looking at her picture.
So why can't we have a website that is exclusively OURS?

And no idea who the entertainment is. Guess we find out when we get there.
Frankly, I think Seamus will be the best entertainment we have.

HMMM.. I THOUGHT SEAMUS WAS ALWAYS THE BEST ENTERTAINMENT WE HAD!   

[Ambrosine]

Ok I have a little concern with tommorrow. I have never been to this site when it has rained. Does it get very muddy there? With all this rain and the cold I'm sure its not gonna dry up over night.Just wonderin how dirty I need to expect to get   

[iain robb]

I'm thinking that with all the mulch they usually put down, there should be few muddy areas and a whole lot less dust than there normally is. In short, I think the rain today is a good thing.

A couple of years ago, they were towing people out of the parking lot after they'd gotten stuck in all the mud.

EDIT: From what I've heard, the grounds are "trucks-getting-stuck" muddy.

[NoBill Lurker]

Just think it is now just 12 hours till opening cannon!!!

And I'm as sick as a dog...

Don't forget to dress warm for tomorrow and take lots of pictures for the ones that can't be there!

LOL!!   There have been some memorable performances....but then, I always had one helluva cast of characters to play off of...

Tailgate in one hour.....HOUSEKEEPING!!!

Talk about an understatement! 

It's cold and dreary here, with continuous snow. I want my faire fix now!

[Jessi]

Well, it was a good day in all. Me, my bf, and 4 girls. We arrived about 930 and left at 5. The girls were done. I met a few R/F people, sorry I don't remember everyone's name. It was indeed cold, but not unbearable. We may go back tomorrow, but without the young ones.

Get on down here!  It was 40' this AM at tailgate, and even the scotch had a hard time penetrating the cold.   But the tailgate was a success, and we met friends new and old.   There was even some food left over!    From what I understand, we had less than 2000 thru the gate today. 

On the other hand, I've been to Akron at this time of year...

[Welsh Wench]

Ah, but we went shopping, Seamus! 

[Seamus Ex Machina]

OMG!   Wenchi, your hat is just gorgeous!

[Captain Jack Wolfe]

She sent me some pictures!  That hat was just waiting for her!

[Welsh Wench]

Seamus convinced me with a ' Wenchie, you really ROCK that hat!'
And now I can carry my lunch to work for the next two months....
