[Ravensfort] Folk Festival

[Carolyn Pace]

We hear this news with great pride for our Barony who continues to do wonderful things in our absence. 
  Please know we miss you all and our shared fun together. We hope to be able to rejoin you soon as we can now see a small light at the end of the tunnel. A recent quote from my mom who continues to make baby steps in the right direction. I have informed HL Devin of the details of what has been happening so you will know that we have been very involved in our mundane family life. 
  With much love and light, 
Giovanna

Many people were interested in looking into us further and we had a number of verbal commitments to join us at fighters practice, as well as a few who seemed interested in our populace meeting this Thursday.

With her came the return of Kaley a former resident of our fair barony and her fiancee Jens. Sunday they also brought us a wonderful dinner of roast chicken, potatoes and carrots with a lovely wassail to go along with it.

However, we have most definitely demonstrated our worth this year and we can perhaps look forward to an even more glorious festival next year.
