"Open Rain or Shine"!... it'll be fun to watch a muddy chess match. P.S. there is a video on youtube of our good King mud-diving, though it doesn't show what you looked like afterward! Huzzah for being such a sport.

One weather site says the rain Saturday morning is supposed to be gone by 11:00am.
Let's hope so. Poor King Henry doesn't do a pretty impersonation of an old wet hen.  ;) ;D

Will there be a repeat of the famous mud dive?

I hope not you know how hard it rained that Monday?  Its bad when you start worrying about the water reaching your kilt.

That particular Monday was INSANELY downpour-ish!  We were soaked through every layer, and in nobles, that's hard to do!  Of course, it probably helps that the Marchioness got in a water fight with one of the Baronesses and then ended up teaming up with her against one of the King's Guards. *snerk*

Seriously, we reached a point where the cast pretty much said "Can't get any wetter!" and just played in the rain.  I remember walking up and down along the side of the kitchens by Captain's Pub and taunting the crowd that was hiding under the overhang, calling them cowards for being scared of a little water.  I got some to come out and dance in the puddles with me. :)

It was fun, but very, very WET!

Just remember that even if it stops raining, it will still be slick out there.  Pay attention to your footing!  Trust me, I spent time flat on my arse in a mudpuddle in the SAPA parking lot a couple of years ago, followed by time in the EMT's shack.  Not fun at all!  (Though the Boys in Orange are always fun guys, it's just better to not need their professional services.)

Gretchen and I are packing the rainboots just in case. I think the camera will be staying in the car for Opening Gate
Still Meggers, just a little more grown up now. :)

Between the weather and his Excellency's cold, I think we're shooting for Sunday.
That should be different.
