OK, getting packed already I can't wait!

Are you guys tailgating that Saturday or Sunday?

Yeah, we should be having a large gathering ... some of the Pittsburgh folks and GLMF folks will be invading as well. Also some of the VARF & CRF folks.

Can't think of a better place to bid a fond "Farewell to Faire for now" but at MDRF surrounded by good friends, a beautiful Shire and...SEAFOOD!!! Thought I OD'd on Oyster Shooters when I was there during Labor Day Weekend but that just seemed to be a "Warm Up"!

...counting the days.... ;)

When you say freezing do you mean below 32 degrees? No, I think it will hit a low of 34 so we shouldn't be freezing.  ;D

It doesn't look like it's going to be a nice weekend.  :(

Just like our closing weekend it was rainy and cold.

Lots of warm drinks I suppose.

Piffle.  We were going to come up to MDRF this weekend since it's one of my rare Sundays off.  But that whole 'high in the mid 40s and raining' took all the fun out of that idea.  If it weren't a four hour drive each way, we might have done it anyway -- or at least I might have!  I hope the weather's better than forecast and that everyone's having a great time! 
Where was I going and how do I get there?

Oh, Pish Posh, Feline.  I haven't made it to MDRF as much as I've liked this year and I will BE THERE for closing weekend, cold or not.  I hope you will make it as I would love to re-meet you.

This past weekend was one of the nastiest weekends, weather-wise, that I've ever experienced at faire.  Still, it was well worth it, as rain day performances at MDRF are awesome. The performers know all the people are regulars, and their regular routines are disrupted, so they'll often take requests, and end up doing all sorts of hilarious improvisations you'll never see at a regular day at faire. They also have to get out of the rain, so they'll often end up performing practically in your lap.  I was standing so close to the Pyrates for one of their sets that newcomers might've mistaken me for part of the band.  The Hooligans did part of their "modern Renaissance" set, with such authentic renditions of traditional 16 century tunes as 1000 Miles by The Proclaimers and Del Shannon's Runaway (with the organ solo played on the ocarina).  Anybody seeing the Pyrates or the O'Dannys at the Globe got to sit on the stage with them, under the awning. And Molly/Chelle (the fiddler)  had her violins secured safely someplace dry and warm, so she brough a kazoo along instead.

I'll be there both days!  Normal garb on Saturday and FOPPING it with Lord Fondlebottom and any others that care to join us on Sunday!   ;D  Saturday looks to be cloudy and cool, 61, with a 40% chance of rain but Sunday looks glorious right now.  Sunny and 59.  Can't wait!

Just wait on that, Sunday was supposed to be nice according to weather.com early last week, and... well, it didn't turn out so bad, but still, heh.  Still, 50/60s is much improved.

Captain Fortune and his entourage will be sailing in Friday night for a weekend of revelry.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a Saturday visit this weekend, weather and work permitting!  (Although I'll most likely be in 'danes -- no one will recognize me, heh.  :)  )
