Sandrine,  you and your hubby are more than welcome to camp with our clan, McLotofus.  There are three weekends McLot is in full camp mode, Opening, Hallows and Closing.  The inbetween weekends; there are still quite a few of us, we just may not be in the exact same spot, but close to it.

To answer your question about parking.  You are able to have your car next to your tent and the faire does not permit campers to park in the designated parking lot next to the campgrounds.  We and others use vehicles more or less to make exterior borders and so on.

Kehle!  You had better make yourself know to us this time lol!  ;D  Be sure to let us know when you plan to camp this year and please join us.

To both Kehle and Sandrine:  Send me a note on here if you would like more detail about how our camp runs and of course you are both welcome to sign up on our forum: www. mclotofus. com/ forums!  :D

I must have to agree with all when saying camp, besides when you camp you are only a few minutes from your tent.
If you do the Hotel thing, you will have to sit in the parking lot waiting for a slot to get your car out in line and then it
is bumper to bumper, stop and go far a long time.  That's just my two cents on the subject. Like someone said earlier
there are a lot of places to camp that you can remain shy if you choose to do so.

Thanks for the notes, everyone. My sweetie's birthday is at the end of October, so we're thinking either of the last two weekends of October might be a good one to get out of town for a few days. I'd love to have a group to camp with, for the whole 'safety in numbers' idea. We're generally quiet and easy to manage if the McLotofus clan wants to adopt us. :)

I'm going to check out the McLotofus forums. Oh, and I'm trying my hand at making loki as well. If all goes well, I'll have a batch or two ready just in time for faire.

Don't worry about not knowing anyone out there just yet. It won't take long for you to feel comfortable. I don' t really have any faire friends as well. I usually just go to the faires with my husband and kids. But, this year my husband and I have decided that we are going to go to a few weekends by ourselves and finally start to get to know others that are there. We have camped every year since 2006 and still have not gotten to meet anyone. But, this years different. And I hope to make your acquaintance as well. So, enjoy the fest when you go and yes the camping is sooo much fun!! ;D
