I keep trying to organize my thoughts and try to give some indication of what it was like.

Next to impossible. I don't think Sorcha and I ever bothered with "Hi! Nice to meet you!" or anything of the sort - she sorta pounced on me as soon as I entered the dining hall to register - and we went pretty full tilt from there. have to admit It was mid Saturday before I found out the 'Jack' that had been escorting Sorcha about was "THE" mudcat Jack - but I'm a little slow sometimes anyway. WAKANA and Brett great fun to meet, Brett and I have missed each other at several events over the past few years. Meeting Barry's Justine was great as well.

Carly has spun up a really nice treat for next year - In my possession now are four skeins of a handspun lovely dark alpaca (I'm pretty sure she said alpaca) and silk yarn which will get knit into a shetland style shawl for next year's silent auction. Start saving bucks now peeps - I intend this one to be a wowser of a shawl.
