Get on down here!  It was 40' this AM at tailgate

Forty degrees? PFFFFT that's just downright balmy in my neck of the woods!  :D Good drinkin' weather is what I say! Wenchie sent some pics to me and it's weird seeing everyone cloaked up.

And now I can carry my lunch to work for the next two months....

Yeah, but it's worth it, isn't it? That's what it was like for me after MDRF. That hat is so you!

I'm hoping someone got pictures of the Ranger's new hat on Sunday. Not the Saturday hat, that one I have and will be posting after a bit.

Wenchie's new hat is gorgeous, Leinad's new hat is smexy (and Antiquing is goofy!), it was cold 9oh shush you  Northerners -- we all moved to FL because it was supposed to be WARM!).

Tailgate was fab, I'm always carrying a bagel in my purse (Rose Nyland says HI!), and, as always, WHAT HAPPENS AT FAIRE ENDS UP ON YOUTUBE.

Love you all and so glad I got to see some of my favorite people this weekend.  Now to make it through another week.  *sigh*  Is it Saturday yet?

How is it that I kept moving almost the entire time from opening cannon to about 3, and saw virtually no one after the tailgate?

We went to see the Chess Match at 3:30, and afterward I realized I should have kept moving. I started to shiver uncontrollably. I got a cup of coffee and stood in the sun, and managed to warm back up, but that was enough for us.

Knew I should've worn my wool pirate coat over my kilt.

I thought it warmed up quite a bit for most of the day, but started to get cold again around 4. Strange the timing of that no?

I actually got sunburn from seeking the sun most of the day! I haven't been sunburned in these temperatures since I lived up north.

I am sorry I was not in attendance on Sunday. Saturday evening I had a slight accident at home
and was laid up in bed all day Sunday. I still am not up to par, but expect to be there this weekend!
It was great meeting everyone new and seeing everyone again.

I'm sorry we missed tailgate  :'( I could not get us out of the house timely, we were too cold and wanted to stay undercovers lonnger! But we did get there at opening time at least! Unfortunatly I didn't get to meet any one so hopefully this Satuday I will run into a few people other then Squire Mickey and his Kilt  ;) But really congrats on the kilt competition Mickey!

Oh no, Lady D!  Hope you're okay!  Sunday was weird... all the people I was waiting to see weren't there!

And we were tailgating until half past ten so if you were there for opening you could have made tailgate!  LOL

Time to start planning THIS weekend!

8:30, you know the place.  Who is bringing what?!?!?!

I gotta bag of frozen kit kats with ya'lls name on 'em!

We will be there this Saturday but not planning on getting there till closer to 12:30. I will have the whole family this time so its even harder to get every one out the door and also means more money spent on food so we plan to eat prior. This way we can stay till closing and the wee little one wont be too crabby.

Who is planning on going on the Friday? We are going with out kids since its a school day for them and taking off work ourselves. This way we can get a little sillier with our beer and attend the queens tea. Anyone planning for tailgating that day?
