This may take a while, so bear with me.
For those that were attended, you know that there is only one word that can be used to describe this past weekend... EPIC!
Clan McLotofus put down roots on Row 8 and proceeded to have an outstanding time! Kudo's to our camp planner (Blue) and all the people that jumped into our kitchen & laid out fantastic food for everyone to enjoy... *Advent, Mead Swilling Lech, Martin Montgomery, Tanyor, and Pop's* Everyone was ready & willing to put their hands in and get dirty. The Ladies of the clan were buzzing around like busy bee's, seeing to all the small details that us men usually don't think about or are wont to forget... Thank You, Bonny, Celtic Rose, Guinny, Cindy, Catherine, Blue, Yrose. * I know i forgot some people... kick me in the shin later ;D* The inductions into Clan McLotofus were held Saturday night... and except for a faux pax on my part, went off with out a hitch.
The Order of Culloden Moor held it's first offical meet & induction... Rapier Half-Wit, Advent, Martin Montgomery, Black Watch and Mead Swilling Lech are offically Clansmen of Culloden Moor! Huzzah!
The weather was beyond all expectations... Mother Nature had a fit the night before but camp was high & dry. You couldn't have asked for a nicer weekend.
Now, on a more personal note...
Breandan... ach, tis was a pleasure to finally meet you, Sir! I'm so glad you came to camp... i think that i've found another kindred spirit!
Sir Martin... Sir, you will always be welcome at our fire. Thank you for coming and gracing us with you presence.
Captain Fletcher... Even though you were going to throw me out of faire, i still like you! Lol
Lord Jarhead... thank you for coming to TRF... your legend grows. ;)
Captain Sin... Now, Sir, you are a man that i could come to like! It was great meeting you and your crew!
Lady Dracconia... i saw the surprise on your face when you heard my name... am i that ugly? Lol! It was wonderful to see you, Lass.
Rani Zemirah... You have to be near the top of the list when it come to nice people! I look forward to seeing you again.
Queen Bonnie... i have finally met the one & only... it was a pleasure, Ma'am.
FaeHollow... Ahhhh... Fae, Fae, Fae.... i left you for last for a reason. Upon hearing that you were looking for me, Saturday, i made a special point to track you down, Sunday. I knew who you were when i walked up to you but once i looked you in the eye, my brains turned to mush and i completely forgot what i was going to say. You are a beautiful woman and you do your character credit! I can't wait to see you again and possibly chat more... ;)
If i have forgotten anyone, don't take offense... it was one hellva weekend! HUZZAH!
AHE was most definitely a beautiful weekend. Tons of fun. And is it just me or was the camp ground actually tolerable this time? Huzzah for Security!
I'd like to thank McLotofus, PR, Bayou Scoundrels and the other clans for playing along as we brought our kiddos through for Tricks and Treats.
It was also very nice to meet some of the forum members that I had not had the chance to meet yet.
Now to prepare for closing weekend - Tons more fun and tons more food (o:
DOH! :o I forgot you, KP! It was great to meet you, my friend!
Likewise Fraser - As well as the rest of the Order. Perhaps one of these days I'll be in a position that will allow me to join you fine gentlemen.
{ACK: That sentence is bound to haunt me}
Fraser - All Hallows was indeed a wonderful weekend and unforgettable experience. Got to see so many old friends and meet many new ones. The food, fun and camaraderie was top notch. My thanks to you and all of McLotofus for the epic hospitality! Looking forward to the next time we all shall meet.
Great to see everybody! I had as much fun as a slightly inebriated guy in a kilt surrounded by his faire brothers and sisters can have!
;D
Well,
Fun indeed.
I did see a few costumes on patrons that made me come up with the following quote,
"Alcohol is Clorox for the mind"
Marcos
LMAO! I can think of a few myself, friend! :D
Some costumes would surely make you go hummmmm. We made it down on Saturday and had a fine time. I ordered a new pair of boots and then we enjoyed the day. Is it just me or have some of the attendees gotten lost in time. LMAO
Fraser, my dear, it was pleasure itself to be escorted by you through the campgrounds, and to feel the reassuring presence of the Order surrounding myself and my renlet as we wended our way through the maze of revelers. There was never a moments concern for safety, and the thrill of being squired about by such a brae brawny kilted lad as yourself is enough to make this Gypsy wish she were much closer to your neighborhood than she has any business being... ;)
I look forward to next time... :)
Angus, it's true that a few of us were time-traveling on Saturday, and we had a wonderful time with it! We were well received, and it was fun to field all the questions about the Steampunk genre, although it was just as much fun being back in Ren garb the next day.
Yah my group and I did the Gothic Alice and wonderland and had a BLAST. And we loved seeing all of the steampunk!
alcohol is clorox for the mind?
well that gives a new meaning to eye bleach!
Fraser: It was nice meeting you as well.... even if you did meet absolutely insane Birgitte while she was building a nest in which to lay schnauzer puppy eggs! I tried to meet up with the people at Meet and Greet that I knew fairly well from the forum. I managed a few but the man who started the infamous 70 + countdown thread was missing! Glad Zaubon sent you over!
All Hallows Eve was definitely a weekend to remember. Its in moments like these that I have to say thank you to everyone.
This is your SAPPY MOMENT disclaimer so if ya ain't feelin' mushy, too bad! ;)
Thank you everyone for your support and care. There wasn't a single time that I didn't walk into camp or walk up to someone at faire that I wasn't greeted with a warm smile or a hug.Everyone has always been so gracious and so many people have taken care of me over the past few years that I've been on the forums. I can't begin to describe how lucky I am to have such a diverse group of people to call my faire-family.
To the Bayou Scoundrels- your hospitality and open arms have been so wonderful since I met you and I was so glad to get to spend more time with you this weekend. Thank you for putting up with the menagerie of people that I brought up to your trailer and sharing your stories. Capt. SIN and Willa, your crew is an incredible group of vagabonds! There is no doubt I will be visiting Baton Rouge very soon!
To Escarlata and Leinad- It was so awesome to meet you both finally! You're both so wonderful and I only wish that you were closer. Esc, you're a lovely, open-minded, caring woman and I consider it a blessing to have gotten to known you. I can't wait to (hopefully) see you both at BARF this coming season! Smooches!
To everyone else-
Everyone has taken care of me, and I feel like there aren't words to describe the immense gratitude I have for everyone.
They say that it takes a village to raise a child and you all certainly have been there to pick me up when I fell, laugh at me when I've been dumb, and all in all done more than I could have ever wished for. This weekend was the first time I've brought some of my friends down to meet everyone and they agree that they will be returning to camp with everyone very soon!
I can't mention only one person because the love I have is for everyone crosses all Clan and boundary lines.
If anyone tries to tell me that they've got it better than me, I think they are gravely mistaken. I'm a damn lucky girl and have no problem telling them so.
Well said Meg! I agree with all my heart!
Fraser of Lovatt, no darling I was stunned by your charm and couldn't take my eyes from you! ;) It just took me a few minutes to realize why I knew the name lol! I can't wait to get to know many of you better than I do now and to grow even stronger in friendships that already had great roots!
PR, it was great to finally meet my faimly and to be welcomed in with such love. It was amazing. My friends had an amazing time and think (As I know) that you are amazing.
BS, you really are the life of the party with a heart of gold, thank you for welcoming me into your camp!
And to everyone else, *HUGS* It was great! Can't wait to do it all again, only differently! (Can't do it the same....wouldn't be EPIC twice!)

Can't wait to see you again, and spend more time with you! :-*
See! I knew there were more people that i was forgetting! Megan, feel free to kick me in the shin the next time we see each other! :D Seeing you is always a high point... you have so much energy & drive. Your friends were all great to be around... tell Gretchen not to be so shy around us... we don't bite. Well, some of us nibble... ;)

The sappiness shall continue...
Meg, I just wanted to tell you that it is understandable how others go out of there way to care for you. I guess it is like they say, you reap what you sew. You are such a sweet young lady and have made my family and me feel welcome as much or more than any other person we've met. During our first year attending faires in this area, I felt there was something different or special about the people here. We love it. It will be sorely missed if/when we have to leave Texas.
Okay, back to lurking and being my usual dorky self.
Oh, and I have to add that I think there might be a new mundane convert soon. Samedi was so inspired by all the wonderful Steampunk invasion, he is working up something for himself. I'm shocked and amazed (and elated). :) Now if it successfully sticks, maybe in the far future we can get him to shave off a century or two from his garb. :D Wish me luck.

What happened to Gretchen's stick? Most people get some gusto in them when they are armed...though something tells me that Fraser could only handle a stick that was full on Nerf. And don't let him nibble you! Didn't your mama ever tell you, "...but you don't know where that's been!"

Lol @ Mouse... you've never seen a Cold Steel Blackthorn, have you? It's required by The Order, which i'm one of the three Lairdes, to carry one...
*damn things can shatter cinder blocks*
Nay, I haven't seen one. I have however used a stagger stick. Use that enough times and I believe I can shatter cinder blocks....If I see you guys this faire season, I shall demonstrate. 5'2 and can put my hand through almost anything...including the arduous task of filling out medical forms because I put my hand through something.
I had an amazing weekend and it was great getting to meet everyone. You are all so welcoming :)
And Fraser I guess I'll try not to be so quiet next time :P
it's ok, Gretchen... we can hit like a tidel wave at times. ;)

I appreciate the sentiment good sir. Laugh it up I say. Besides, why not enjoy a world where people like Oscar Wilde lived and a quote as marvelous as "Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is where a man falls down a man-hole and dies" exist. Woody Allen I think said that one.
Almare, trust me, next time I will make sure to pry you out of the shell and be more extroverted... Or just give you a stun baton to chase Mouse with ;D

Ahh, the Bard returnith! It was a personal pleasure to meet you, Sir! How'd your brother do that night?
I really must stop reading this thread. I was consigned and come to terms with going Celtic Christmas, knowing full well that while Sunday is the 31st next year, I can just as easily rining it in Saturday at midnight next AHE...but, but, it seems I missed, as one rennie put it, an EPIC weekend. I shall lament and await next year to finally meet all you peoples, as I feel the numbers may be thinner that Thanskgiving weekend.
Oh, and no stun batons needed. To quote yet again the great MacManus Brothers, "You'd probably have better luck with a beer."
I have the distinct pleasure to present

*Grim looking lot, eh?*
No finer looking band of kilted protectors could a lass (or two) hope for, whilst wanderin' about in the dark... ;)
I'll be the first to vouch for these fine men, and their chivalrous ways.
Grim yes, but fear not... we exist but to serve.

Rani, you're such a wonderful person... no man, with an once of noble blood in their veins, could not stand against the dark and see you and your wee one safely on your journey thru the night! ;)
Ahhhh... I remember well the look of ye, and the height and breadth... Yer a fine lookin' man, Fraser, and 'twas a pleasure to be escorted through the dusk by such, on more than one occasion... ;) :D
And I thank you for the compliment, but no more so than you are, sir. You company was a pleasure, and is welcome at any time, whether for protection, or simply the joy of your presence... :)
Maybe, the next time, when we get all of you together *coughLECHcough*, the lot of you could actually smile.
Just sayin'. :P
I also have to say--me and my husband just happened to be last-minute tag-alongs with Valt and I must say I really enjoyed myself with this group. It was entertaining, Loki-filled and a good atmosphere to be around. Which is why I am now poking around on the boards here! Thanks for not shunning the newbies!
;D :D
I was just happy to meet so many more people this weekend.

I think since the two of us both spend so much time running at faire that we will have to get together OUTSIDE of faire and spend a day or two getting to know each other better! Rather than drive by hugs! :D

And yes, Drac, we do. The invite is always open that if you're ever in the Denton area, I've got a place for you to sleep!
As quoted by Sound and Fury about how Texas RenFest goers say hello, "Good Morrow Ya'll." Sorry, was watching their USC Cyranose interview recently. I was wondering, and getting ahead of myself, who KNOWS if they will be in attendance the very last weekend. I am the taker of many newbie's renginity this year and would like them to meet what I believe to be the essence of TRF, i.e., everybody I have pretty much met on here. Sound off so I can make TRF the drug I know it to be for other people. Man, I love being a pusher.

You are correct Fraser, the weekend was EPIC! It was great to see everyone! ;D

You? Intrude?!? Never, dear!!! One of the only regrets I have about the weekend is that you, and one other, were unable to attend...
And Fraser, there are many adjectives I might be tempted to use in describing your looks, and ugly would
never be one of them! Flowing locks, certainly... tall, commanding, serious... but also gentle, strong and humorous. All of these come through in the expressions on your face, as well as in the way you carry yourself... and those are all things that make a man more attractive than he may know.
(oh, and that goatee... just plain sexy...) ;)
Rani, I am sorry I wasn't able to make it. I know you meant me by the one other :)...How ever can I make it up to you? Shine your shoes, remodel your house, set the clock on an electronic device in your home? Tell me! I can't live with the guilt!

Oh, ummm... did I say one?!? Of course I meant two... yeah, that's it!!! ;) I was absolutely
devastated that you weren't there, Mouse, and am now brokenhearted... although I'm doing my level best to console myself by flirting outrageously
(and so far unsuccessfully) with Fraser... :-[ :D
I
suppose I could forgive you, though... However, my boots
did seem to pick up quite a lot of dust last weekend... :P

that I would dearly love to see, although I don't for a moment believe it... :P I'm sure you've plenty of practice fielding compliments from the ladies, and modesty is simply one more of those qualities that makes you stand out from the crowd. ;)
AHE was about as much fun as a woman can have with her socks on. It was such a pleasure to meet some of my board friends; the men were drop-dead handsome and the women as beautiful as a Kauai sunset.
Well,
I met many wonderful people, and will be back for final weekend. This was my first faire as an employee and i have to say, it is a different view indeed.

You mean, you take your socks off???
I like to feel a man's leg w/my instep & I've got wickedly agile toes. Socks just - get in the way.
Thank you Rani. I also regret me not being there!
Sexy indeed! Of course, he isn't the only fine speciman of a man in that picture.
OIY! That's my personal guard you're talking about there, ladies LOL. Dirty rotten scoundrels, every one.
I wouldn't have them any other way :D
*facepalm* DOH!
You can't fool me... I know a heart of gold when it escorts me safely through the night... and guards mother and child with life and limb, though only recently met. I'll let them regain their surly reputation, however, and say no more in praise... though I know what I know! ;) :P :D
Is it not funny how the dirty rotten scoundrels are more nobel then the nobels
We may look scary but i would trust my life to any man in The Order... good souled, solid men, all.
And here I've said I'll say no more in praise... (sigh) ::) May I, though, at least agree? (and not with the scary part, either... :P ) :D
As far as being scary, my wife complains that I take way too much time getting ready in the mornings. And I keep trying to explain to her that it takes time to scrape off the layers of ugly, or I risk scaring small children.

I suppose I could forgive you, though... However, my boots did seem to pick up quite a lot of dust last weekend... :P
Don't beat yourself up Rani...We will always have Paris....umm, yeah. I will send you a photoshopped picture?
Ummm, if I rightly recall, you are not a single man, or even a single mouse... and as I prefer to keep all my various parts attached to my person, I'd suggest that we just let Paris remain with the French, my dear Mouse... :D
So... I'll just send you my boots... yes? You can always shine them up nicely, then ship them on back to me... ;) :P :D
Paris, Texas? *grumble* Fine, but I was going to put us bungee jumping from the Eiffel Tower, a la An American Werewolf in Paris
I only have one thing to say, AKWARD!!!
Hehehe, :-* :-* :D :D ;) ;)
Lub ya, Rani!!!!!
Mouse, you and i are going to have a long talk, Closing weekend. >:( ( :D )

I have an alternate proposition to this my good man. Can't be much talking if we are stuffing our faces with Thanksgiving goodness and swilling mead and the like, now can we?
Oh, and I can't believe ANYTHING a la 'An American Werewolf in Paris' got shot down...what dark times we are living in...

Not half so awkward as trying to explain why someone's face is buried in someone else's cleavage, and both are huddled under the same cloak, in the same chair... :o
(but at least they were both warm!!!) :P :D :-*
Lurves you to, BunnyFur, and I miss you lots!!!
Photoshop away, Mouse... just make sure my chemise stays firmly down around my ankles when I jump!!! :P :D
Oh! And the boots are oxblood... NOT brown!!! ;)
I was about ready to bury my face in my OWN cleaveage the first night I was so cold...if only it wouldn't make my neck hurt!
:P
Now that would take some maneuvering!!! Oh, well, unless you've got one of those special bodices that create the "high shelf"... :D LOL

Explain what? Sometimes those things just happen...alot. Now, somone explain this to Mistress Mosue if they would..get myself out of the dog house. On a side note, we actually have taken precautions and planning against the cold. Enough firewood to build a log cabin and my tent has been designated as the hot zone. It gets too cold, we are piling in my palacial tent....I smell a scandal coming on at my camp.
Hah! You missed all the scandal, my Mousy friend... shoulda' been around OUR fire... :P LOL
But... there are just some things that Gypsies and Bunny Fur barbarians don't speak of... because they're just... too... AWKWARD!!! :o ROFL
Lubs me sum Bunny Fur... ;P
scandal you say? never!

And this, ladies and gentlemen is why I love faire. Nothing perverse, just people being people...and it not being awkward at all.

You weren't even there... and you missed it all!!! :P LOL
(but I was quite warm, thank you...) ;)
And Mouse... "awkward" can be code for
many things! :D
lol
You Rani, have never seen me dance. Then awkward becomes not a word of many things, but interchangable with, "Hey, did you guys notice that Tim dancing silence earlier?!"
Just so long as you don't actually fall in the fire, I think any dancing done at (or after, as the case may be) Faire has a grace and charm all it's own, and rennies are far more understanding of the different drummer we each carry within...
You are welcome, Mouse, to dance around any fire which I tend...

Thank you very much Rani. You epitomize the very essence that I hold dear of faire: We don't judge. We live.
How can I possibly justify judging others when I am so frequently to be found wanting in some way, myself? Of course, having said that, it's prudent to point out that everyone makes judgments every day, although I try my best not to judge others on those things which make them uniquely who they are...
I would also like to point out that there is a distinct difference between falling in the fire... and Dancing with the Flame... One will burn you, but the other will make you Burn, and if you someday find yourself within the range of my Circle, I will most sincerely invite you to Dance...
I got drunk on Halloween.

Halloween implies evening. Methinks you didn't wait quite that long, of course that can be blamed on certain unhelpful friends. ::)
While I am saddened to sit here and read about the incredibleness that was AHE, from you guys and fellow friends of mine ( I must stop perusing their photos..tis torture it is), but I loved my halloween. It was......illuminating. Hope that came off as cryptic. Would of been over the top to have been at AHE and finally meet you guys. I owe some drinks and was offered some drinks. My memory may not be for much, but, aye, I do keep track of my p's and q's as it were. Slainte'.
