Yes, and since the weather turned out to be much nicer than expected, I was
extremely pleased with the turnout.  Those of you who stayed home to wash the
car during the "Blizzard of the Century" missed out on a lot of fun.  But
that's okay, cause we're gonna do it again in two weeks!  (Mark that calendar
now...Jan 17th)

For the record, we had people from at least three different Baronies, plus
just under a half-dozen non-SCA folks who came out and joined us because it
looked like fun.  I don't think anyone left without a smile on their face. :)

Thanks, here's that twenty I promised ya!  And though it oft times pains my
Baron and Baroness to admit it, I *am* a Dun Carraiger.

Don't worry, there's a pretty good chance I *might* post a reminder to the
Merry Rose before the next dance practice rolls around. <g>  Heck, I might
even tear down that goofy "heraldry comment" page and put up a new northern
dance page in it's place!
