As always....good times, laughter and fellowship were found with our friends in Hollygrove! (as well as dust galore!) Such fellowship make it all the harder to come back to work, alas...but I hope to see some of you mayhaps at ORF or MDRF before our season comes to the end.

Wow...what a weekend! I want to thank the Hollygrove regulars from the bottom of my heart for such a warm welcome, especially Ladyfair and Lady Ann. Everyone was so friendly - cast, playtrons, and vendors; I felt right at home instantly, especially at the Guinness Pub!  ;D

The weekend flew so fast, as did my money. I bought some gorgeous things, and will be eating Ramen noodles for the next three months! *grin*

I would love to return again this season though chances at this point are slim. MIRF is definitely on my itinerary for next year!

It was a pleasure meeting you as well Athena, we like to have fun at the Guiness Pub, and we were glad you could join us!  You are welcome to our beloved Hollygrove anytime!

I had no idea about the dust, prior to arriving!  Half way through the day, I looked down and saw my once shiny red undersirt, had a greyish tinge to it.  When I took it off later on, back at the car, my legs and hoopskirt were covered in dirt.  Once home, I just hung each piece of the outfit on the clothesline, and hosed it all down.  The water was almost black :)

aitn faire dust great, lol.. but you forgot the 30 minutes or so it takes to get it all out of your nose... but if i ever win the lotto i woud show up with a dumptruck full of wood chips and ask f i could line the walkways.
I'm walking in a dream half the time, and sleeping through reality the other half.

Ah but woodchips present their own issues, my good sir. Heinously stabbing being the big one.

Oh Captain my Captain,

As always was such a pleasure to see you and we are so glad that you made it home safe and sound.  Though I did miss seeing your little friends that use to ride around on your hat!  They would make me laugh just seeing them.  It was so good to have some time to chat with you before being rushed off to work.  I always know that it is going to be a good day when I see you there!!  Huge hugs to you and yours and we hope that we don't have to wait another year before we get a chance to see you again!!

Dear Lady!

Again, the heartfelt gratitude back to you for making us feel so welcome in your Shire and...I'm sorry if you mayhaps missed Sod on my hat and Tipsy & The Crew on Dwyn's hat....but they were there...unless they chose that time to abandon the hat and scamper off on their own skullduggery...I wouldn't put it past those "Pyrats"! Still....as I said, always a wonderful time visiting up north seeing old friends and making new. I too hope our paths cross before a year has passed by but we never know what The Fates hold, so till then, I cherish the times spent with you all in Hollygrove!

Till then, I remain yours....

Hey folks, finally got to downloading my pix from laborday wknd. Had a blast as usual and very much enjoyed the company of some very interesting people. This is the dutchman of course, sporting his new pipe and mug and looking cool as a cucumber on a very hot day. How does he do it?



and here's the link to the slideshow and as always feel free to copy pix if you want.

As a Pirate myself, I only wish I was 1/2 as cool as the Dutchman.  He is the greatest!  His charm with the ladies, and his ability to make kids smile is second to none.  Not bad for a 375+ year-old Sea Scoundrel!
