Breandan, there is the Loki Challenge probably on Saturday night at Drunken Gnomes... but you don't drink. 
There will be Random Blender Emergencies with Blender Roulette at McLot at some point during the weekend... but you don't drink. 
There will surely be the naked slip-n-slide at some point as well... but I'm not really sure it's safe to even observe that on without being well and truly drunk... and you don't drink. 
There will be Trick-or-treating... but Fionna is a bit young for that one just yet, and I'm guessing she doesn't drink, either. 

Rani! you make everyone sound like a bunch of alchies!

oh...

wait...


nevermind...

Heheheh... :P

One of the things I really enjoy about the TRF campgrounds is that you can pretty much just wander around and introduce yourself to people, and they will usually talk to you!  If they don't, however, you can just move on to another camp, and chances are really good that those folks will chat for a bit, and probably invite you to try whatever they had for supper, or offer a beer, bit of Loki, or just a bottle of water if that's what you prefer, ask if you'd like to sit by the fire for a bit, make sure you know which direction you're headed when you leave since it will be dark by then, and invite you to come back and visit, find them "inside", and remember at least your face the next time you see them...  So even if I don't have some sort of "entertainment" planned for a particular evening, I know I can't help but be entertained, nevertheless...

I just had ONE margarita with dinner...

I have come to the conclusion that my alcohol tolerance is VERY low!  Looks like I need to start prepping for faire!  :o  ;D

I agree, good times in the campground.  I tend not to walk around much, but most wanderers are welcome to stop in, I'll share what I have. Just listen for wierd music and way over the top German accents, thats us.

Crash, are you one of the... raver's... by any chance?  You know, those folks who play very loud amplified music at night in the campgrounds...?  We've been looking to meet one, or more, of them for a while now, for a special little ceremony someone suggested a couple of years ago, but none of them have wandered into camp so far...  :D

Bonny, there is absolutely nothing I can do to get that part of me ready, so I will just have to live with being a lightweight when it comes to drinking!  Luckily I have just as much fun making the drinks as I do actually drinking them!  :D

Facing away huh? I hope it's not a cedar tree. And I give any drink full body I say! With a little bit of gameiness to boot, as well as chalk full of Vitamins W, T, and F. I do so love to walk around...going walkabout is one of my favourite pasttimes at faire...though I have been followed back to camp by a stray or two.

I play music, but it isnt any louder than anything else being played all over the place, nothing like the 200db hair rock I had to suffer through until 5am year before last.

My play list has a wide variety of music, from synthpop to punk rock to folk. This will only be my 3rd year camping out there there and have read about these ravers people mention, which I have yet to see any. Maybe I am looking for what I remember a raver was in the 90's, some colorful kid on x with a pacifier playing 220+ bpm techno (fyi, all electronic music is not "techno"), but I am guessing you all have a different vision?


If I am not in garb and I need a label, I guess it would be deathrock.

I did have some guy and gal wonder into our campsite one night "looking for ravers because they hate them".  They heard some electronic music as they walked by and I guess they figured they would come give us crap or something. The music was Birmingham 6, an older industrial rock band. I am not sure what they originally planned on doing, but once the met us, hung out around the fire, listened to some more music, had a couple drinks, they realized we were in fact not ravers.
