Pretty much everyone gathers by the pool and relaxes...and drinks... and relaxes more... and drinks... and relaxes more
As long as we aren't totally obnoxiously loud the managers have never complained... I think its kind of expected now lol

*rum, loki and an ice cold swimming pool... what could be better?

Teach my dear, I've yet to have the honor of meeting you, but I certainly look forward to it! I'm a rummy myself (hehe, my term!) so i'm sure we'll get along quite finely..well as long as I share my rum with you or the rum is plentiful! lol ;)

Yeah..maybe we can fix the cold swimming pool predicament? Spikey and I have a lot of those heater pack things we used to use at Faire last year and stick in our sleeping bags. Maybe if we get about 10908098 more of them, we can heat the pool? lol.

Woot! Three more days!

As we used to say in the Navy "Getting to the short strokes". Hmm wonder if civilians will take that wrong?

Day after tomorrow get off work and drop the dogs off at the kennel and then pack bags.

Friday morning early (7 AM) head up I-45, trying to get through Houston before the rush hour.

I should be in the area around noon. I'll probably head over to Lake Bardwell to check out the campgrounds for future trips up with the travel trailer.

Check-in time at the motel should be around 2 PM, so I'll be hanging around the check in desk about that time.

Anyone have suggestions on how we can leave a note of what room we are in? Maybe if I just wander around in my kilt should be good enough.

If there is a bar, I'll be there or out at the pool if not. I guess I should bring beer and Loki in case there isn't a bar.

Any plans for dinner together Friday evening? What restaurants are nearby?

I plan to stay off the internet tomorrow, just to avoid any problems with the worm launch.

for food, i was probably goingto order a pizza.  maybe if everyone throws down we can just order out for a pill - o- pies

I won't be in until  22:00 or later, if there are leftovers I'll donate.

Not that I know much about science... but I am pretty sure that the handwarmers wont work so well in the pool...
We can possibly hook a water hose to the hot faucet on someones room sink... run it out to the pool... leave it on all day
and by the end of faire season that water should be plenty warm!

No bar Mike, just figure on meeting by the pool.
We'll be out there at some point probably early afternoon. Apparently we have friends who get up WAY early and like to stop on the way to faire lol.
Thinking about it, folks may want to bring chairs to poolside if we are going to have this big of a crowd out there

*And Juju... rum is always plentiful when I am about... bank on it!*

10 Am is not early. Departing for faire at 0500 is early, but I've been overruled on that.

We'll bring a couple chairs...too bad they would very likely be upset at a fire pit!

does the phrase "Crack of Noon" ring a bell?
Sheesh!
And meeting in San Marcos at 10AM means leaving the house at 9 which means getting up at 8
that... is early on a day off
so there
neener
We'll be meeting ya though! To excited to be on the road to not meet up with ya

Perhaps.... floating the firepit in the pool as a warmer could work

*and of course... San Marcos has the big rum store... and that's important too*

Yes, I shared your phrase with the Lady Adela, who normally is all about that being a great time to get out of bed.

However shopping and faire are two things on a very short list that inspire her to get up a bit earlier.

Looks like I might get in a little earlier.
I have two bottle of sweet mead and two bottles of dry to supplement Mac's supply of homemade. Oh, and I have the stuff to make about a half dozen "Sweet Bitches".

Heck yes, Zaubon! I love your sweet btches! lol.

I must say that is one of my fave drinks now :) Genius, I tell you. Pure genius!


Looks like Kris/Spikey/NightWolf (or whatever nickname any of y'all know him by) and myself will be arriving 10-11 p.m.ish. I couldn't get off work much earlier..phooey! Hopefully some of y'all may still be up and having a good time when we get there so we can kick off faire with a bit of a party!

;D

*hugtackleglomp* Woot! I can't wait to see you too! By the way, when we get there (Kris is now swearing up and down that we'll be there by ten *cough*we'll see*cough*) if you're awake I could really use your help finishing some garb stuff. Is there a walmart in the nearby area by chance? Maybe you and I could make a quick WM run (and anyone else who is interested) so I can grab a few finishing pieces and or booze and flask if they have anything like that :)?

So wish I was joining ya'll tonight but I have my first night at my new job so who knows what time I'll be done. I will see everyone bright and early in the morning and save a sip of Loki and mead for me, pleeeeease.  ;D
Still Meggers, just a little more grown up now. :)
