What's Andelain?

It's an area of the Land where Earthpower flows really close to the surface and there are lovely Gilden trees everywhere......

Actually, I'll let Fist and Danlo explain.

I talked about Andelain here:

Unfortunately, the two links there don't seem to work anymore. But, as I say later, duchess posted a few. Impossible to do the place justice with pix, but they are nice:

Wow, stunning. Simply stunning.

Either Saturday or Sunday is good for me, although if we go on Saturday I would like to return at least a couple of hours before dinner to get ready.

Saturday would probably be a little rushed. Sunday would be a better day, IMO.

So- should I put in "Trip to Andelain" on Sunday in the main post? Could even be just a tentative thing.

Should be mandatory! also on that drive:
The Tunnels
Soda Dam
Battleship Rock
Hot Springs*
and Jemez Falls*

and it's only an hour away...

*fire danger permitting

I request many pictures to be taken Sunday, as I will have to leave Sunday morning to fly back to Indyland (couldn't get time off from work)

Eek...

Does this mean I need to bring swimwear?

::: oh, the horror...:::

don't worry everyone just jumps in naked!

I'm actually more comfortable with that prospect than with putting on swimwear. But, no one else will want to be exposed to either...

:::reliving good memories of Haulover Beach in the mid-'70's...:::

Wow! Cail really IS gonna miss out on naked time with the ladies of the watch!

See?!?! Sidetracked about clothes. (Or lack thereof.)

Does anyone second the motion for a T-Shirt idea thread?

I saw the picks of last time and danlo had a "100% unbeliever" shirt. It's just NOT FAIR if this time I get to go but there's no shirt!!!

My girls will look cute-but-strange wearing their "I <heart> lepers" T-shirt. Or whatever we go with. I bet some other people would look cute, too.

I just posted this in another thread, and as I see SRD is going to be there Saturday, I'm going to see about making this happen.

Okay, hi folks. I know I'm new around here, but this sounds like a blast, and if SRD is there, I may have to be too. I live in Denver, wouldn't be able to go until Saturday, but if anyone is flying in, doesn't want to drive alone (I'd be happy to drive if you are renting a car), go halfsies on a room, and even might want to stay Friday night in Denver (my girlfriend and I have a spare bedroom), I can't promise anything, but I might be able to assist. Please know this is a might at this stage.

Hey! very cool news-I had a bad feeling about the Rock Room at The Cooperage--it seemed too small, so I went back today and switched to The Atrium. Three huge semi-circular booths, big and airy and bi-level-surrounded by soundproof (from the street) glass. Tons of plants-it then goes down another level to the bar and the dance floor. We have it from 6 to 8:30 when the dance crowd begins to show up. We basically have this huge quiet space to us until then--I guarantee it's 10 times cooler than Garduno's facility we used for E-fest '04. (and no danger of a Mariachi attack! )

btw...100% Unbeliever shirts have always been for sale on Jay's cafepress shop-see stickied thread in TCTC forum

Couldn't you guys postpone until next April when I'll be in Santa Fe?

*sigh*

Fine. Whatever. 'Fest is postponed until next April.

WOOHOO!

Thanks Fisty

See. That was easy!
