Hello from the Columbus Airport!
Another Marcon has come and gone. As usual, a good time was had by pretty much all. The good things mostly outweighed the bad. I got to reconnect with some of the OH/MI Wenches and it was good to see the Kentucky boys again. (I seem to have a weakness for SJ-MIBs). Once again, I am being pressured to come down to Conglo. We'll see...
We did not win Iron Costumer but we were the clear choice for Best Use of the Secret Ingredient. (Primary - vhs tapes Secondary - ugly bridesmaids dress). Masquerade had a lot of technical problems but there was a very deep field of Novices - 15! There were several entries that I went up to later and told them that in any normal masquerade they would have been in the running for best in class but there was just SO much talent there this time. Only 3 Journeymen and no Master entries - and a Novice entry won Best in Show!
Got too little sleep, drank too much, and generally enjoyed myself immensely. I will write in more detail once I am home and not being charged by the minute for Net Access.
