Yep, I was thinking Sunday would be the better armor day. Looking forward to it. :)

Argh. I can't make it Sunday. I had everything packed and got a call at 2:30am last night from my parents - now, I'm down in NC helping my parents with the cleanup and restoration - the water heater busted in the house and flooded the first floor. There's a bunch of dehumidifiers and fans set up, plastic all over the place, walls covered in mold - got the busted water heater disconnected and bypassed it by running the other water heater directly into the primary hot out line, so we've got hot water back but can't sleep on the first floor at all and we're dealing with the "fun" of insurance, and the crew is coming back at 7am in the morning to continue. I'm 6 hours away from MDRF and will be here probably all day tomorrow to continue, but have to get home by Monday morning to take my dad in for surgery.

Sir Brian - I will find a way to coordinate and meet with you to give you the check for Sallie and to pick up my surcoat. I'll try to get in touch with you monday evening post-surgery, or tuesday during the day.

Wow, what fun. Sorry you couldn't make it, but sometimes life gets in the way and we just have to do our best. Sir Brian filled me in on Sunday, since I hadn't logged into the forum.

I should have some pictures up a little later today. I was too tired last night and had trouble getting started this morning! It was great to have you join us for the armor photo op! :)

Looks like I missed quite a few newcomers. I'm sad that I missed it, but family emergency came first. Hopefully I'll meet the new people before next season!

Certainly understandable James! Family should always come first! :)

Here are some of the pictures taken on the last day of faire.

It's pretty awesome we had two more present for the picture than last year!  :)

Hopefully we'll be able to coordinate even more next year. Maybe at the start of MDRF we can request the folks we see in armor throughout the run of the faire to be there on the DoW in armor so we can have a huge host of armor goodness!  :)

I was there on Saturday but missed Nathan...my wife was not feeling well so it was time to go.  In the group shot, the short one with the horned helm, I saw him on Saturday dressed as the King (he was in a previous year's group shot in the same garb).  Where'd you find the giant in the reaver get up- not that you would miss him, of course.  lol

His name is Vince and he's been going to MDRF in that kit for a couple of years now. He'll be at PARF next weekend so I hope to get another picture with him and Sir Matthew! :)

I always miss the armour/photo days!  :o
And I'm sorr I missed you too, Sir William! I was scanning the crowds for you, but I just didn't pick you up  :(

I guess I'll catch you guys on the 19th then  :)

I'll keep an eye out for the both of you. We have a fairly large open block in the afternoon after we do the chess procession at 245. Around 3 or so it starts. I have a M'Crack meeting at 3 Sat. but like 330 to around 5 I'll likely be out and about, maybe we can arrange a meeting place?
