JBoogalooThis too shall pass...Alexandria, VAIcrontian
I think I'm out of town that weekend, but could possibly leave my apartment available for someone trustworthy if they need a place to crash. Food and stuffs will be available.
If I'm I'm town, you're still more than welcome to crash, I have 3 couches and a futon, so yeah...

I mean by schedule I basically meant like, where are we staying, was your mom's place still open, etc. I know it's not epic, heh.
Kinda what I was getting at too, Rennfest on fri and hang out sat or what ,no schedule like Epic, just wondering a general feeling on which day I can come down
It really seems like this is overcomplicating, but I'll translate

I'm flattered that you guys think there is a schedule but it's pretty much as Linc said, show up at my place Friday before dinner or my mom's place after that time and we'll go from there. With such a small event the "who's coming and when will they arrive and depart" really matters in schedule making. Once we get that sorted we can solidify some plans.
Friday "dinner time" lets call this 6 ish
Dinner time involves eating in the Alexandria area, given that it's referencing Anne's place
After dinner time, driving to Anne's mom's house and commence shens
Stay the night at Anne's mom's house
Saturday - renn fest will happen, so eating breakfast might happen at anne's mom's or foods at the Rennfair [bring cash or stop at ATM]
More board games, drinking and baby-involving shens
Sleep
Sunday leave
What time do you guys normally head over to the Faire? Just wanting to plan my drive down from Lancaster PA

We usually try to get there around opening (10am) but what day we're going is up in the air. We can forge ahead with making a list of "whats and whens" when we know who is coming and their arrival/departure times.
I can be there Saturday around 8 or 9 and leave that evening So Ill just go with the flow! I should were some Real Amish garb! I mean midevil times nad Old order Amish arent toooo far apart!!!

colapart legend, part devil... all manBalls deepIcrontian
My scheduled four day weekend is a week before this happens, and I don't get a real weekend while this is happening QQ
The issue is that half the drive is through the mountains. I literally cannot speed through them-- I've tried, the roads are too curvy. It might be easier in a car versus an SUV. The other issue is that I've been warned that Maryland really likes pulling over West Virginians. Plus, even if that's not true, I rarely speed much as I'm worried about tickets. I seem to have a knack for attracting cops, even if I'm only 10 over.
Despite fortuitous geographical proximity, I have to work that weekend. But if you guys are eating in Alexandria on Friday I would definitely love to join.

@Annes feel free to amend this
Also: cash required. Don't forget to account for wood mug cash if you've not undertaken that rite of passage.
Don't try a cc at renn faire.
Wood mug is worth it, 11/10.
What is the wood mug?
A mug that floats. Much like a witch.
I didnt know if its a mugg of beer you must drink
How much do the wood mugs cost?
Wood mugs cost $85-$200, most standard ones around $95-$120. I'm fairly certain they take credit cards; most of the Faire does not.
For reference, this beauty was ~120$ and was worth every penny.

Chances are we aren't going to be in DC for my birthday afterall
Have fun guys!
He's been to Rennfest before.
WELP
I don't know if I'm coming to Rennfest. Poor. :/
You're like 2 inches away on a map now.
Which is a 7 hour drive.
So just @Linc ? What about @MiracleManS ?
You need a faster car.

You need an airplane.
