Roasted Mouse... Oh My...

Glad to hear everyone had a great opening weekend.  NOW...  Where are the pics??  Those of us who couldnt make it this weekend would love to at least see some of the fun and excitement.

For those of you who also have Facebook accounts, Don English has posted a couple of photo albums:

First Weekend - Saturday, 9-Oct-10
First Weekend - Sunday, 10-Oct-10

I don't know if he posts here on RenFest Forums, or not.


Take Care,

Wow... I'm beginning to think he either doesn't even HAVE a liver... or he talks a bigger game than he walks...  :P  :D  heheh

Whichever... (heavy sigh) I'm wishin' I was there, as well.  Enjoy, all! 

I've seen Fraser drink, and in spite of my jokes about his beer fountain impression, the man can drink.

This weekend was incredible.
It was so amazing to see everyone that I did and apologies to those I didn't.

The only bad news of this weekend is that my Tamron telemacro lens is pretty much done.
And as a broke college kid, there is pretty much no way that I will have a chance to pay for repairs/replacements.

So most of my photos were crap from the weekend.

Hugs and love to everyone and see ya'll AHE, sans camera most likely.  :-\

That is terrible news, Meg. I'm truly sorry to hear that. I hope that somehow you get a new lens.

Meg, don't you shoot a Canon DSLR?

If you used a Nikon body, I'd do what I could (like sending it with Valt to the Faire) to loan you an 18-200mm lens I've got.

Hope you can beg, borrow, or borrow a lens that will work with your Canon for AHE.

Our buddy, Blue, looked great... well, she's not supposed to look great... hmmmm, how about scary?  ;D  Nasty and i tracked her down and managed to say "hello" without any leeches tossed on us.  Can't wait to see her, on AHE, in all of her hump backed glory!  :D

Well, it certainly sounds like everyone had a wonderful time this weekend!  Makes me want to speed up time, but I still need all of it I can get between now and AHE, because I'M NOT READY!!!  :o

Oh, I tried to look at those Don English facebook albums, and it just said "This content is currently unavailable", although I was able to view his other albums.

Strange.  I can see both albums at 3:15PM CDT.  There are some good shots of Chris & Cassidy, and Cassidy & Meg, and lots of other folks you may know.

I had the same problem.  Wonder if he has his page restricted.

When you come though the gates, bear left... past the POW... down to the end of the lane... turn right.  They get the far left hand corner of the Faire.

There were ten frillion cameras around the mouse-roast, and no one has posted a pic yet. Methinks Mouse bribed them ;)

Maybe that album is restricted to Friends only, since I still can't access it, but I can access other albums of his.
