opening weekend on Hold

Grandbaby has not arrived yet.!!!

[dbaldock]

Mid-70s is doable. Mid-60s would have been more comfy for me, but not for most others.  I'm good.

The Arizona Ren Fest opens this weekend, as well.  They're forecast to have temperatures in the mid- to upper-50's...

I finally made it to Sherwood and was awesome, can't wait for tomorrow!

correction Sherwood was awesome

So glad you clarified that, Eddie. Only one person is allowed to be obnoxiously arrogant, and because I am old...ancient...they elected me.... 

Great weekend with some non-faire warts.  Never saw Teach or Jessica, but did see Polly, Beckgams, Castle Canine, and met some we had not previously...David Baldock and Renstarr, for example.  Due to some physical issues, we weren't getting around as much as normal.

Congrats to George & Rengypsy!  It looked like a record opening weekend crowd! Great new pub!

VaNa MaZi was fantastic! Really enjoyed them!

Merlin, did you see the "new" Wine and Alchemy?

You better come out again Maeven! Talking to you and Nick was the highlight of my weekend if I may be so daring as to say!

Oops, I was wandering around taking photos of booths and some of the entertainers, and I missed seeing Maeven!  ::Sadface::

Speaking of, where are pictures? Good thing I'm going this weekend because one of my first thoughts this morning was I want to see Sherwood pics!

And I was looking for you, too!

Great opening Day!

>  Had a good time in the parking lot prior to opening cannon.  Met some new friends, had some good conversations.  Good to meet Merlin the Elder and Nimue, as well as their traveling companions.  Also talked with Polly for a first time.
>  Got to hang out with some of my PR clan members that I haven't seen in awhile.  Always good to see Teach and Lady Trinn.  Good talking with Maven and Nick and seeing Zaubon (glad to hear your on the mend my friend).
>  Good talking with Lishy and Dennis and seeing the BS crew from LA.  Capt Sin twisted his back and wasn't feeling so good, that was a shame.  Hope that heals up soon.
>  Lots of other Sherwood regulars that was good to see, even if I didn't get a chance to chat.

Looking forward to getting back down there in the next few weeks!!

RenStarr, we enjoyed meeting you as well... thanks for the jokes AND the Poinsettias, by the way!

[*Teach*]

A great time to be sure.
Not much better than hanging out with the fairmily
I saw you at one point Merlin but I was rushing to get to the photo op and never saw you again afterwards.
Renstarr it is always great to hang out with you. Hope we have more time another weekend.
Maeven, the spawnling is a precious bundle. Wish I could have spent more time visiting. Hopefully you will be able to camp again some day...
Betty, getting to hang out with you and Alex is always a blast. So very glad to have you both as full members now (Also, Star Trek is the best).
And to everyone else, I truly wish there was time to visit with everyone. We were showing some renvirgins around and that took up most of my day.
However I will be back Saturday! Let's do it all again!

*with more rum this time even!*

Alex will learn the Truth... One way or another. Mwahaha!
We will be back in camp Friday night, so I'm looking forward to another great weekend of faire! And this time, I won't be sick and tent bound for the first night!

We're spoiled this year with all the camping and the fair-ing and the fun
