Countdown to MDRF 2019

[Seamus Ex Machina]

Well, I can feel it.
Can you?
It's getting CLOSE... here we are just two months off from the massive "Rennie Social Event of the Year" and I'm champin' at the bit to be up there amongst so many friends...
can you feel it yet?

Falcone and I shall be there all three days for the RenDezvous weekend... and I know Captain Seamus Rumkiller of the Harbinger will be with me... not sure if any of his crew or any others of the local crowd will be with us... but we'll be there to "represent", yo!
(ok, so I guess I don't speak youth)

We're countin' down the days...
you feel it yet?

Master Hardwood and The Hectosaurus are allegedly up for the journey....and we can't wait!! 

[Pinn]

Is anyone bringing a pet from the FL chapter? I have someone for them..

[Peddlin]

We miss our cousins from Florida, and we are in breathless anticipation of your arrival!

[Count Adolfo]

As I get a clearer picture of the situation, I'll be able to tell you all more.  It's like herding cats!

[Seamus Ex Machina]

Is anyone bringing a pet from the FL chapter? I have someone for them..

The Hectosaurus is a pet......just talked with him tonight.   His work schedule is a real deuce...he can't wait to go and see MDRF and get a good fix.  Master hardwood is a bit more problematic...he went to the hospital with chest pains on Monday.    He's OK,  but I'm wondering if the old git will be in fighting form for the Rendezvous...

[Count Adolfo]

Seamus and I shall certainly do all we can to bolster the strength of the Florida contingent... and we'll also try to be as entertaining as we can

[Scotsman]

Mere hours away my friends!!

[LadySeasan]

[Amras Elfwine]

The new squirel wagon is making is debut on Saturday, the old Jeep having been retired as a daily beater...in other words, no more following the rust trail to find me anymore...

[Count Adolfo]

I am jealous
you folks have mere hours whilest we must wait a week to joineth you

[LadySeasan]

it starts tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wow i am up early lol

[Amras Elfwine]

Count Adolfo, we will be able to share that drink, at long last...(or two or three...) :-)

Weather is improving slightly for opening weekend:

Saturday, 78, now only a 30% chance of rain, windy
Sunday, 82, 30% chance of rain, windy

I still plan on rain for tomorrow, as Danny Boy beats up the coast...

[analise]

I still can't decide what's going to be my best bet for "rain-wear" tomorrow. Definitely will wear/show off my new bodice. Everything else may just end up depending on what I pull out in the morning to put on.

[RSLeask]

Well, I'm one of those freaky types that actually hopes it rains... but that's because I love the rain, and for some reason, enjoy faire more when it does (not because of the thinned crowd, btw).  But, I'm like you, Analise... not sure how to plan on this one.  I mean, Danny's sneaking up the coast, and could take a nasty turn.  High's supposed to be 78 (down from 83), but that could change as well... for better or worse (worse being it shoots back up).  Unfortunately, because of the temp, it leaves me torn... do I wear the half-moon, or not.  Cuz yeah, does wonders for keeping me dry, but... if that temp shoots up to the 80s... bleh 

Oh, and... 21 hours, 22 minutes now!

please dont' rain, please don't rain, please don't rain, please don't rain

my husband has a tendency to cancel ren fair trips if it rains
and my joints really get bad when it rains, and then i get sick, and wont be able to enjoy the fair

please don't rain, please don't rain, please don't rain, please don't rain

i think i need to go find something to sacrifice to the rain gods! water, maybe?
