I will be there on Thursday the 3rd. I believe in the afternoon, if memory serves.

william, are accomodations until friday taken care of ?? travel and sleeping arrangements ??

Assuming that you're asking about me in my travels, then yes. John is picking me up at the airport and we're going around to pick up some camp stuff. Then over to his place to finish last minute projects and get a good night's sleep before all the festivities.

William, Capt. J, you guys are awesome! The wife will likely bring her digital SLR as well, so I think we will be well covered... Not like you two haven't got that covered in spades already. Live video feed, that is just crazy fun there! I hope it works out!

Live feed sounds like a blast, but can it be recorded?...as I will be at another event and won't be able to watch it live unfortunately..

I shall certainly try to record what we can. It may mean purchasing some additional software. Between us we'll record as much as possible.

I've cleared all the cards, charged three batteries and packed the telephoto lens. I should also have video at my fingertips and we might try skype and a hidden live feed.

Take the battery charger just in case they have electricity to keep them charged up! lol

I can watch the live feed or if you can tell me how to, I can save it and share it since I will be home.

picked up the tents from bo today... there is also a small shelter... and..... A COFFEE POT !!! my day has not gone to waste !! now all i need is a ceramic mug to try to glue back together after i drop it...

bo is doing well, his wife's job situation is looking merrier, and he will be able to finish the last year of school... near disaster avoided...

such generosity on bo's part cannot go unpunished... a proper flogging may be needed...

from the two tents and shelter i picked up from bo, i believe william is staying in one, another couple from ohio may be attending and using the other ( michael, you may have to verify this--- haven't heard back from trish yet ), and then there is the smaller shelter which i believe is still open...

right now, we have one table, a borrowed table and benches in a box, we have a few crates for stiing, coolers with canvas for other seats..

i am trying to get a few keyhole chairs together, a table or two and a few more chests... don't know if i'll be able to get them togther in enough time though... i'll have to see...

we also have plenty of cooking gear, but not enough utensils... cast iron pans, a dutch oven, a brazier, some plates, mugs, lots o' bowls, a few platters, not much period eating utensils...

so, we have some to share, and lacking in a few other areas....
