ursulas_alcoveDidn't plan on it at some level. I had a grand scheme to conquer the universe. I really did. It was suppose to be one trip to the midwest, economizing on mileage and hotels. It was suppose to go: Kalamazoo, MI, then Chicago, and then Milwaukee, staying at friends houses and plotting my schemes as I went. Then Chicago got moved to the beginning of the month, leaving a two week gap. My friends got the flu. I got the flu. A blizzard hit and I was almost stranded in Green Bay. Hotels were booked full due to basketball in blizzards in Kalamazoo. Why play basketball in a blizzard? Why Kalamazoo? The world will never know.
So instead I went to St. Charles IL and did Reenactor Fest, recently redubbed Military Reenactor Fest. Cool stuff! Amazing people! Romans, German tanks, Awesome! View pictures on my FLickr Page.
I took my husband along because he doesn't get out much. And he had a billion hotel points so we could stay free. If you plan to conquer the universe, do it on someone else's dime. So in between, we visited museums. Those are a work in progress on the Flickr page. I have the EAA Airventure Museum pictures up. I got to see Spaceship One! I need an evil laugh and a bald cat, then I will be invinceable! (Okay, a spelling app wouldn't hurt either).
Then I headed over to Oshkosh to see Bling. Ooo, shiny! The costumes, wow. The accessories, amazing. The jewelry shiny. The pictures, kinda dark. Need photoshop. Need real computer instead of tiny Android. Then, only then will you see the most astounding costuming known to woman-kind!
So all that leaves no explanation to why I am currently sitting at a desk in Boston, MA, plotting my next moves to overwhelm the SCA with the most awesome fiber arts display of merchandise at Gulf Wars. You'll just have to come back often to read my blog and find out why.
