where Guardian of the Tor was held was pretty good. Also I
enjoyed the Tanglewood site down in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Corsicana</st1:place></st1:City>.
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.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

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. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
