I'll be out early next Saturday to set up and possibly help out around the faire. I'd be leaving about now if it wasn't for needing to wait for business cards coming Thursday or Friday!

I'm looking forward to meeting you all. Thanx for the compliments on the tent! Excitement can't begin to describe..... ;D

Mac, are you going to be camping in that thing or is it just for show at the faire? Cause if your camping in it,cool, I to will be camping and setting up a 2 wall tents  and if we camp close by it would make for a nice set up. Last time I was there I camped in the back corner on top of the hill it was nice and flat up there and close to the trees. I'll should be getting there some time Friday late affternoon.

It's just for peddling the wares. I'll be in the 'Shark at night. Easier to be comfortable in a 30' ship, ya know? By the way, I've asked Kristen via email about rv hookups, but she and Dustin must be busy as all heck getting ready. I've not heard back yet if there are hookups available. Would you or anyone here know?

I'd really love to be able to use the power and plumbing facilities properly. Power mainly. Some projects require power tools, and there are plenty of projects needing to be finished!

The French Court Palace is really huge and going to be amazing when it's finished!!  There are also tons and tons of other new buildings and lots of other improvements around the grounds.  It's so exciting to see all of the growth just since last year even!!!  I really hope you all make it out this season because I truly think it will be a remarkable one!

Even though my car broke down last night, with a will there is a way, so Almare, one of my friends that is coming with me, is driving me and Autumn, my room-mate to Ottheinrich's house. You can count on me being there on Sat. morning, come hell or high water.

A few season ago they didn't have a cannon they had a Mortar.  Loudest thing I've heard since I stop working as a powder monkey in the coal fields.  You not only heard it your felt it right through your shoes.
