That's okay.  At TYC I was camped at least a quarter mile from Rolling
Thunder, and a little after 3:30 AM I was seriously considering calling
in Arc Light.

	Please rank these sites, #1 being the best

 

1   Canton
2   Three Kings site (I am assuming this is the site out at that little
lake off of old Hwy 80 - Hawkins Lake or something like that)

3    Other...Camp and Fish where Guardian of the Tor was held was pretty
good.  Also I enjoyed the Tanglewood site down in Corsicana.  I know
this site was super primitive but there was something really cool about
turning out the flashlight and the ONLY light there was starlight and
the faint glow of torches and campfires amongst the trees.

4  Middlefair and Wagonmaster....don't know. I didn't attend Springfair
this year.  The name Wagonmaster doesn't ring a bell with me.

 

One site I did not enjoy was Camp Cimmeron in Oklahoma.  There was a
pumpjack (oilwell) nearby.  It kept me up all night long.  It was my
very first event and I was camped between Rolling Thunder and I think
Wolfstar.  Well I was not used to such partying at campgrounds to start
with and it seemed like that CRAPPIEST, DRUNKEST, DRUMMER ALIVE just
kept going all night and into the morning.  I was fed up and left in a
snit and a half before breakfast.  Well it turned out that crappy
drummer was the effect of the wind and that pumpjack.  The breeze came
toward us and would carry the sound of the pumpjack for a few beats and
then change and stop off beat.  Drove me freakin' nuts.  I wish to thank
a lord by the name of Fluffy for talking me down off the edge and
convincing me to give the SCA a second chance at another event.  I may
have to give Cimmeron a second chance now that I am more experienced and
mature and like to party more.....and I know about the pumpjack.
