I should be out every weekend with O'Riley (aka Sir Jerrick Rayfe). That is if money allows, but by that time we should have enough saved to afford the gas. (if it stays below 5 dollars by then)

My husband and I will be there on Halloween for sure and we are looking at either/or opening weekend or for Celtic Christmas (oooo 3 days!).

We usually camp with friends from Ft. Worth when they attend but also want to find new friends to camp with.  We are willing to bribe you with beer and poptarts to gain your acceptance.

We'll take bribes, but you're already members of Clan McLotofus so of course you're welcome to join us. We normally do row #8, but we might be enticed away.

So far I plan to be there opening weekend, Halloween weekend, and Pirate weekend. I may be there for closing weekend as well. I'll be camping with the Gnomes any weekend I'm present at faire.

StudMuffun and I will be there Opening Saturday, Halloween Sunday and Closing Friday at the very least, hopefully more.  I doubt if we shall be camping.  People don't like StudMuffin leaving meadow muffins about.
Title: Re: WHEN and WHERE TRF 2008
Post by: mpullen on May 12, 2008, 10:10:52 AM
Opening
All Hallows Eve
Highland Fling
Celtic Christmas (including Thanksgiving Friday)

On that note, if folks enjoyed my fried turkeys last year, I'll setup the fryers this year. If no one liked them, then I won't bother.

No word if we have any wedding receptions this year to host, but if there are any, I'll bake a batch of Chicken Michael.

Each week that I attend, I should be out at the gate Thursday afternoon (probably Thursday morning on opening).

I'm looking forward to greeting old faire friends and meeting new ones.

As soon as I get a decent chunk of time, I'll cc all the info to page one for easier reference. I know, I'm not on the ball this time around. Mike, we LOVED your turkeys. And that lemon rosemary game hen was PHENOMENAL! I don't believe that we'll be hosting any weddings this season, but it is really too early to tell. I'm super excited to see all of you in the fall!!

Don't know for sure yet, what with real life changing quite a bit.  I'd guess opening weekend pretty definitely, and I think we'll try to make the "Asian Invasion" if Badra and Koolagh do that again.  Will try for Pirate Weekend - my alter ego doesn't get out enough.  Beyond that, we (or just I - I have a habit of going to faire when he's working) will probably pop in another day or two.

Post by: texanromaniac on May 17, 2008, 03:31:28 PM
Not sure yet what weekend we make it down for TRF...must talk it over with the rest of our little group, but it would have been a toss-up between Pirate Invasion, Highland Fling, and Celtic Christmas. Pirate Invasion is out now though, as it is on race weekend, and I'm guessing my dear man will be at the Speedway that weekend instead!!  :D

In any case, we'll be camping...and any working folks will be taking their Monday off...and if it isn't for Celtic Christmas, then their Friday off too...so as to have as long a weekend as possible!!

The Concillium will be at TRF 1001 dreams weekend.  We camp onsite and love visitors.  Beware of our troublesome twosome, when ever they are together trouble tends to follow.  ;)

Post by: Thomas Eagle on May 19, 2008, 05:39:55 PM
Halloween at least for this season as things have not been as flexible as they were last year.  Ally and I have an apointment with a group of wild ones and so I'm sure I'll be taking my Vacation time to be able to spend the whole weekend at faire. 

So far we have the "Ding" and "D/A" stories and we will see what gets added on this year, haha, it should be fun.

If it comes down to a choice of gas to get to faire or a bottle of rum for me, buy the gas

*you live close enough to get me rum on a non-faire weekend ;D*
