.....I like the fact that the VFW Hall has the Wireless Internet back up. I was already able to access different web-sites for people and get them the information they need. Yay for the Internet! :-)

.....Definite plus! Streaming Wolgemut in the background! Now I just need to slowly turn up the volume. :-)

.....Work is starting to pick up its frenetic pace. Management is starting to figure out the implications of my being gone for two weeks and the 'to-do' list has grown dramatically. Thankfully, the Big Boss has had his own plate full and so has left me alone. But that hasn't stopped the Mid Level Boss from flexing his muscles. Sometimes he has brilliant ideas and handles the sudden change in moods and demands for attention from the Big Boss with spectacular grace. Then there are those times when you wonder how he gets out of bed and to work in the morning. And sometimes you never know which one you are going to get at any one time.

.....Part of me is looking forward to the travel next week. I like traveling and seeing new places and exploring. But there is a part of me that is wishing that TBT could be traveling with me. It's always much more fun to go exploring with someone you love. But she has a pretty full schedule. Maybe some day we'll go traveling. I'd love to go to England again. That is still my favoritest place in the world. :-)

.....RedBow has convinced me to work with her on an ocarina this Saturday at the A&S Day Camp. I listened to her play her ocarina's at a couple of events and really like the sound of them. The bass ocarina has a smooth and mellow sound, but will enough power to fill more of a space than expected. It has a pretty sound too. Somewhere between a pan pipe and a gemshorn, but with that 'ceramic' feel to it. If I can get one done correctly (which is not guarenteed :-)), it'll be a good addition to the repertoire. :-)

.....I think I'll pack the gemshorn and recorders as well. If Rebecca shows up, maybe we could play a song or two. I might throw out an e-mail to Antonia as well. She has been wanting to come back and play a little in the SCA and she has been working with several groups in the Seattle area. Her expertise is something that would be an excellent resource for us.

.....We're slowly pulling in our information for KAS. Isketol received information on the room rates, which is really good. The Silverdale Beach Hotel is going to lower their rates to $79 and $89 a night. Which is fantastic considering that their normal room rates are upwards of $129 a night. Now we just need the Catering Representative to talk to his boss and get us a deal on the rest of the hotel. I'm thinking that we could fill the hotel. But we certainly couldn't guarantee that officially in the contract.

.....I still have to finish my Seneschal report for the first quarter of 2010. Sigh! Takes a long time to pull everything together. And I have to get it done by this weekend. Regional Pelican Meeting on Thursday. But thankfully I'm ready to go there.

.....Eric just e-mailed me the copy for June Faire. I need to spam the lists. I will do that tomorrow as soon as I get home from work. He sent me the copy in the new '.docx' format. Another reminder of how antiquated my system is. Sigh! I need to upgrade at some point.

.....I'm sure I'm forgetting something I'm supposed to be doing, and it is nagging at me as I know I'm forgetting something. I just do not know what it is. I'll probably remember just as I'm ready to go to bed, and before I write it down. Just in time to forget it again. :-)

.....Time to shut down the VFW Hall. Time for dinner! :-)

.....Aaron / Arontius.
