The lady in green flitters forward and raises her glass to all.  "Not
nearly deserted, just quiet.  We're more than one would think, remaining
behind, guarding the home fires!"

It has been too, too many years since I was last at Pennsic (XIII and XIV
or was that XIV and XV??)  In any case, lack of vacation time and funds
kept me from going back.

This year it's more lack of money and energy -- and I need to think through
(and acquire) what all I need for full camping.  Or maybe decide whether I
am still interested in a week or more of camping.  The joints creak and I
seem to suffer now more from the heat (air conditioning IS my friend!).  

Oh, but the magic of summer nights, tents on the horizon and a sky lit by
falling stars!  Oh war, and rumors of war!
