i visited downtown holland for the first time ever last weekend!
it was pretty sweet!
@Houk do you live nearby or were just passing through?
Its really a better place to check out in the summer/fall. Especially since we have more events like street performer series or ArtPrize in Grand Rapids.
Yeah. Next one should have more for warning; I had to wait for boss to get back from ice fishing to make the schedule. You coming back any time @usagi or @Lost Salient we can plan ahead for?

Sorry Mitten friends, honestly the only reason for me to be back in Michigan these days is for weddings - as a non-native I have no family in those parts and I have reasonable success conning others into visiting me rather than the reverse.
Long story short is A) I have no weddings until next year, and weddings of old college friends pretty much preclude meetups unfortunately.
If I do end up Mittening again soon for any non-marriage-related reason you know I'll hit ya up!

@Bedlam a little bit of both. I'm from Hastings and I've been staying with family there since November. But it's just temporary until I start grad school in Japan next fall, or otherwise find work elsewhere.
I looove the lake coast in summer, but haven't checked out Holland specifically. My uncle lives in the area so hopefully I can make it back this spring/summer
The Michigan Ren Fest will be kicking off and I'm gonna go and I'm gonna throw me some axes and hopefully see Birds of Prey hunting (literal birds, not Klingon Warships).
The theme for the weekend is:
Royal Pet & Ale Fest!
August 22 & 23
Pet Festival
Pet Entertainment
Cutest Dog Costume Contest • 1:30pm
Fairy House Competition Voting
Micro Brew Tasting
So not only will there be throwing weapons, cool crafts, entertainment galore, and Jousting, there's gonna be DAGS! IN COSTUME!
So I'm in the car on the way to Chicago for a screening event that's probably gonna get canceled due to weather. To help pass the time I'm listening to Wardruna and damn if it doesn't get my blood pumping!
I'm really looking forward to the festival this year, the musical acts especially. So what is your favorite act or act that you've seen at a Ren Fest?

Hah! I just went to the renfaire in Kenosha, WI. I was just planning a trip to the Michigan one when they open up, beer tasting included? Sign me the heck up!

I really wish it was feasible for me to make it down there. Alas.

What aspect is infeasible? Transportation, funds, time?

Kind of a combination of all of them!
It'd be impossible to make it down there, hang out, then get back up in time to make a ferry back to the island, so I'd have to find a place to stay for the night. And that's assuming I could find a ride at all. Bah.

I'll make it out next time if there is another. But right now I feel pretty sick.
Hopefully the machines don't reset the top scores so that all can stand in awe of DMR

I'll see if I can get that in the schedule.
Whatcha think, @Uriel ?
