Countdown to Sherwood Forest Faire - 2013

[PollyPoPo]

Never check the weather this far out.  There is no way they can accurately forecast that far in advance in Texas.

KP is right.

AccuWeather puts it at 68-44 on Saturday.    So that's a possible high of between 68/85 and a possible low of 44/55.  Then again, there are wizards' spells at work, too.

Is the Old Farmers Almanac still printing?

That is correct Polly. Even though I won`t be there ,I am working my good weather spells. I bet Merlin the Elder has been doing the same. I am up and walking around. I am going to try for the end of faire to join everyone at the faire. I hope you will be there then...............Huzzah

[Merlin the Elder]

Going to miss seeing you, A³. Catch you at Scarby, then?

I'm going for an average of the last two opening weekends—85° two years ago and 35° last year.  That should put us at 60°, which is perfect for my taste, tho' a little cool for others.

 I had a great time at Sherwood last year. I was really hoping to make opening weekend. I am going to miss seeing You,Nimue,Polly, and all of the rest of my Rennie friends. Yes Merlin the Elder we shall see each other at Scarborough. We shall have a beer before opening cannon. Boom. I am still going to try and make it to Sherwood,maybe closing weekend................Huzzah

I take blame/credit for the warm winter. I built a sort of greenhouse thing to protect my plants when the weather was getting cold. Since that time it hasn't gotten cold again. Apparently being prepared stops bad weather from happening.
I can't decide if that is a blessing or a curse but as camping time for Sherwood gets closer I am leaning more and more towards blessing.

*I don't like my rum frozen*

  We were just talking about how nice the weather had been this week when we started hearing low rumbling thunder followed by a lot of loud crashing outside.  Headed out to the porch and confirmed that it was indeed hailing. Hope the campgrounds are alright.

Hard to miss Homer, the Odyssey.  We are bringing two guests who have not seen Sherwood yet.

Hope to be there 9-ish, if I can round up the ladies and get them there... You can't miss me... I'm the good-looking old man with a long beard... 

We hope to stop by and say hello, if that's okay!

If that's okay?!?!  I'd be angry if you didn't!

Fine, fine, fine! LOL!

[*Teach*]

Tonight is time to make sure the shower system is working and make sure all blankets/towels are cleaned and in the bin. Then it is just waiting impatiently until the next 9 days have gone past.

*Rum inventory has been taken. Repeatedly.*

[Merlin the Elder]

If you are not planning on showering between tonight and opening weekend, please stay downwind of me...

[*Teach*]

I will shower Saturday morning. Promise.

*showering with rum isn't as good as it sounds*

Hotel reservations have been made, chainmaille has been found! All we have to do now is pack some snacks, pack our mundane bag, sort through the garb box (which really shouldn't take long at all) and clean out the trunk of the car (which also shouldn't take too long). Next week, we are Sherwood bound!
