    LOL! I'd hate to think there's another soul who's THAT fugly!
    Sorry I missed you! I may get around to changing my avatar, now that I've stopped shaving my noggin.

We had a very hard time getting out of the parking area which was a giant muddy mess.
    We decided to get out of Dodge, at the first storm... Frederick Celtic fest was enough mud for one season... LOL!
    Hope to see you at PA Celtic Fling!

    I wasn't actually there last year, but I went with a friend who's performed there before and her father's been reenacting there for years and years, so that was the hot topic of the trip.
    This year saw a new man in charge, I can't remember his name, but he was very nice and really seemed to be hard at work after the storms hit to be sure that the event delays stayed just that: delays rather than cancellations.
    The performers I talked to seemed to be enjoying it and a decent crowd stayed through the heat, then the storms, then the cold, then the storms I wouldn't call it resurrected but from what I know it definitely seemed like a step in the right direction!
