Ren Faire Dates - 2008
Sir Edward:
Yep. I keep meaning to check out the wine-tasting booth, but haven't gotten to it in recent years. The winery does really well during the faire season. I think they sold out of several wines last spring.
Sir Edward:
We all set for VARF this coming Saturday? The weather this week looks to be on the cool side. I hope that keeps up for the weekend. It would make for perfect armor conditions if it's cool and dry.
Looks like I'm most likely doing my 13th C stuff this weekend since the new sword should be here by then, and I managed to get some good time in this weekend on lengthening the hauberk. It's probably almost done now, after.. uhm... about 8 years. :) I may just call it done now. I'll see how long it hangs on Saturday.
Sword Chick:
The Muirs are set for Saturday. Should we pick a time/place to meet? I can't wait to see your stuff, Ed. <starts humming a little Right Said Fred> ;)
Sir Edward:
Well, it opens at 10am. It's a good 90-120 minutes from my place (google estimates 1:49). It'll be a little shorter for most of you, I would think. So that might factor in... how early do you want to get there?
It'll take me a good 10-15 minutes to armor up in the parking lot. And the site isn't huge, so I can e-mail you my cell #, and we can probably meet near the gate no matter who arrives first. :)
Here's google's directions from the beltway:
And from the website: (http://varf.org/schedule.html)
From Washington, DC
Take I-95 South to the Thornburg exit (Exit 118) West.
You will cross Route 1 and at Snell, 606 is joined by 208 (Courthouse Road).
Continue straight ( do not turn at Snell) to Post Oak Farm, where 208 (and you) take a hard left.
Follow 208 to the Lake Anna Winery on the left.
(I've found these directions to work well)
Sword Chick:
We can talk Wednesday at class, but I'd like to get there around opening time. Do you need help suiting up?
