<DIV>I agree.</DIV>
<DIV>My very first event in Raven's Fort was in the dead of winter.</DIV>
<DIV>It was cold and a heavy mist held the original Stones site most of the
weekend.</DIV>
<DIV>Everyone was bundled up with shawls thrown over their heads and
shoulders.</DIV>
<DIV>People were forced to congregate around the campfires. </DIV>
<DIV>With smiles, we shared ideas and stories.</DIV>
<DIV>I had been to other events, but this was the very first time </DIV>
<DIV>that I ever felt that medieval mind trick </DIV>
<DIV>when you feel like you have slipped out of the mundane </DIV>
<DIV>and into the "dream".</DIV>
<DIV>I believe that the cold helped make the weekend magical for me.</DIV>
<DIV>I always look forward to winter events when I can pull out the garb </DIV>
<DIV>that I don't get to ware very often in these here parts of Texas.</DIV>
<DIV>I will be in service to the Barony at this event.</DIV>
<DIV>I hope to see you there too.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Peace,</DIV>

<DIV>As Mirabellis said Populace is this Thursday at 7pm. I have changed the
officers list to remind of both monthly meetings but haven't seen it yet.
Weird. I will recheck <BR> This weekend as we all can see will be
VERY cold but beautiful. Don't forget how much fun it is to dress warmly in
our garb with long johns etc. Okay I will quit being the group mom now! I just
want everyone to have fun but be warm. Please get there early Friday so we can
set up the pavillions for our beautiful awesome autocrat!! YIS, G<BR></DIV><!-- cg3.c2.mail.re1.yahoo.com compressed/chunked Tue Dec 29 11:44:05 PST 2009 --></DIV><BR>
