>> Greetings once more this morn!
>>
>> As I announced at Populace last evening, Bjorn and I
>> welcome one and all to Bjornsstead to celebrate the
>> mundane, but ever so important, holiday of
>> Independence Day.
>>
>> Bjorn works nights, but is available the evenings of
>> Sunday, July 3rd or Monday, July 4th.  Of course, as
>> we plan on staying up late for all the fun, I would
>> prefer and suggest that we celebrate on the 3rd.
>> That
>> would allow many to sleep in on the July 4th
>> holiday.
>>
>> Our stead is vast and rural and far enough away from
>> civilization that the only light you see at night is
>> that provided by the moon and stars.  Fireworks in
>> that atmosphere are beautiful.  And, being rural,
>> there's no one to tell us we can't set them off, or
>> build a big bonfire, or make a lot of noise!  So, If
>> you're free on the 3rd and want to pot-luck and
>> light
>> up the sky, let me know the following:
>>
>> 1. NAME
>> 2. # of family/group attending
>> 3. Food/Beverages/Utensils you might bring (I'm
>>
>> thinking of making a turkey)
>> 4. And if you are bringing fireworks, type of
>> firework
>> and special needs would be good info to have.
>>
>> Bjorn also asks that I remind everyone that if you
>> plan on partaking of alcoholic refreshment, please
>> have either a designated driver to take you home OR
>> a
>> tent to pitch so you can sleep it off! Camping is
>> always welcome but it will be a primitive site.
>> Campers are welcome to come set up Saturday evening
>> to
>> enjoy more of the weekend.  You'll need your own
>> shower set up, however,(unless you don't mind
>> bathing
>> in the pond), and toilet facilities (AKA MY
>> bathroom)
>> will only be available as long as Bjorn and I are
>> awake.  After we fall asleep you're on your own!
>>
>> For Kid's entertainment we have swings and things,
>> water pistols, etc.  Any additional items you wish
>> to
>> bring that will enrich the experience of children
>> and/or adults is most certainly welcome(such as
>> badmitton, horseshoes, tug of war, watermellons and
>> seed spitting, etc.).  Fishermen & Fisherwomen, &
>> Fisher Kings for that matter, are welcome to come
>> early in the day and enjoy the delights of our pond.
>>
>> JUST DON'T MOLEST THE WATERFOWL.  They are special
>> to
>> me and I wish for them to continue nesting with us.
>> Also, swimming is allowed, but you may do so at your
>> own riske and no children are allowed to swim
>> without
>> adult supervision.  Also, this is a FARM and there's
>> usually equipment and stuff around, so , while we
>> encourage the kids to run freely and have tons of
>> fun,
>> we also encourage them to be cautious.
>>
>> ANIMAL ALERT:  Be advised that there are critters at
>> Bjornsstead.  There are a number of horses that are
>> free roaming, and while usually kind and gently
>> affectionate, we must all remember that they are
>> LARGE
>> animals and can be unpredictable.  Discuss proper
>> safety behavior with children please.  We also have
>> some cats and a dog, but they are VERY friendly and
>> loveable.  BRING BUG REPELLENT!  It's is the
>> country,
>> folks, and we do have ticks and mosquitos.
>>
>> And, lastly, if any of you wish to, we can arrange
>> for
>> fighting, archery, axe-throwing, wrestling, etc...as
>> competitions or just for the heck of it.  Just let
>> me
>> know what you'd like to do and we'll see who might
>> be
>> around to facilitate that activity.
>>
>> The building of the bonfire will begin Sunday
>> morning
>> and will probably consist of felling trees, finding
>> felled trees, dragging said trees to Bonfire site,
>> chopping, sawing, and stacking said trees,
>> application
>> of combustable liquid to stacked trees and resting a
>> while till time to contact the mothership. (this
>> would
>> also be a good day to scout locations for that
>> Viking
>> Hall some of you have been talking about!)
>>
>> There is, of course, no site fee for this event as
>> it's just we'uns inviting you'uns to our place,
>> however any financial contributions you might like
>> to
>> make can be made to the Barony of Namron (Please be
>> sure to note whether your donation is for the
>> Barony's
>> coffers or if it intended to go towards the Brewers
>> Guild)
>>
