Title: Weather for Sherwood
Post by: DonaCatalina on February 16, 2011, 10:02:07 AM
You can thank me for the lovely weather we will be having for opening. After our last sub freezing spell I went and bought 2 more pairs of long johns.
That seems to to have garaunteed that I wouldn't need them....kinda like washing your car to make it rain.

Still a couple days away. And knowing Texas weather there's always a chance of ice, snow, tornadoes hurricanes, raining frogs, tidal waves, earthquakes and 100 degree weather.... ;D

Hey, Donna I played a part in it also, I was hopping for cold weather and went out and got 60 dollars worth of propane for my tent heater. I don't think I'll need it now.

My whole initial reason for coming to Sherwood was to be at a faire when it wasn't hot.  You have to understand that I have a low hot threshold.  If it will get no warmer than 70, I'll be very happy.

 We are sort of in a holding pattern for weather. Cloudy and comfortable-60's AM- 70's with a slight chance of fog and  spotty drizzle in the AM. Great faire weather! I'll take it! I think my weather spells are OK- so far!
Wait until you see all the new stuff at Sherwood! I was out on Tuesday! WOW! I AM SO EXCITED about opening! Doing the happy dance! Setting out garb already! This will be so much FUN!!!!

In our opinion, any weather is faire weather. But this weekend does look to be shaping up nicely!

 It is not too hot- not too cold and the photographers will be happy if it stays cloudy! We aim to please!

I'm so happy to be getting away from here, I'll be happy to buy the first round, but only for those I've promised!  MacKee & Bonnie and Lady Kett & Sidekick are on my list.  I'll be leaving here in under 13 hours!  Hokey smokes, Bullwinkle! I'd better get this magic arse in gear!

 I plan to be there- Probably dressed like a Muggle- unless this is a garbed dinner? - but waiting to hear from my driver. I don't drive after dark.  It will need to be an early night for me. I have to be at faire very early!  The show must go on!

No, it's a muggle dinner.  Hopefully, we're not losing our dinner party!!
