Personal Memories
(Add your personal event memories here. End them with a blank line, four dashes and another blank line. Don't forget to sign them with dash-dash-tilde x3. Reminder: it's considered VERY rude to edit someone else's memories.)
It was much cooler than last year but still very hot! I started the event off by leaving the tent walls in Seattle, and having to drive insanely there and back to get the walls and get my tent raised, since I had to host the stool ball game at 7pm. I did make it but was really stressed out!
On Saturday there was Court, followed by an amazing feast cooked by Lady Petronella Kovacs. The food was truly wonderful.
On Sunday, the Wyewood fyrd reported that ruffians unknown had entered their campsite at night and bedecked their tents with ribbons of azure and gold. Hmm! The culprits have not yet been found, but the fyrd demand justice...
Anyway, the event was beautiful, with lovely banners and signage everywhere, and a festive atmosphere. It was great fun! -- Wenyeva atte grene 05:05, 13 Dec 2005 (EST)
