Got everything uploaded! I'm far to lazy/busy to do the captions and what not (I'm completely blowing off A LOT of work just to post!); but I think most of us are catching on as to who is who and what's goin' on

I didn't separate Scythian pics out, so.. gee... you'll just have to suffer through them

This is my first weekend with my new camera; still a point and shoot, but I was pretty impressed with what the lil' guy turned out; in the full size (before uploading), there are a few that make me go "ooooooohhhh"... So you'll see a lot of playing with settings.

That's Aya doing a 'keg stand' at the end...

The more graphic of "the signing" have been removed since this IS an all ages board

I added some of Dayshel's to the end - I um, seemed to, ah... stop taking pictures

Sunday I had Megan Fisher take several dozen; she had a BLAST playing with the super-zoom; I left pretty much every picture she took in that album. The end holds the um, Canadian Celtic Band with random humorous tendencies...

Great shots, you really captured the moment.

The obligatory David Ross with conjoined St. Andrews Flag is great. It simply isn't a Nach gig without him holding a weapon or flag up and screaming about a free Scotland: he gets the crowd ready for the experience!

Talk about politics in a good way

Hope · « **Reply #2 on:** Wednesday 18 February 2009, 23:47 »

I see my favorite pic from Saturday is in there. When am I getting my blown up version?

How did I miss Davie Ross stuffed in the cubbie? Hmmmm... That must have been when I was showing that girl how to do a jello shot, because I remember Kyle sitting in the other one. Speaking of which. Kyle looks evilllll in his "cubbie" pic.

We...OK, Nikol, picks up the strangest men in bars. French men are pansies.

btw...I swabbed my curling iron down with alcohol.

I see Jim was into the Scarf again - you gotta watch him, he does get quite attached to them!

So far, I have been successful - NO pictures of me anywhere!

yayyyyy

Connie, I don't know how you never ended up in our den of mayhem!

ColorDancer · « **Reply #6 on:** Thursday 19 February 2009, 01:15 »

Hope - I hope you realize how MASSIVE it will be

Can I mail it to you at work? I'd have to send it in one of the tubes I brought all the pirate junk in...

Hmmm...my ceiling is pretty big and bare. It'll go fine there.

I kid...

Nope, can't mail it to my work. I'd have a hard time explaining that one.

Don't worry we see each other enough. Just bring it the next time we hang out.

Hey now "Buckey" was a very proper Canadian who insisted on us curling his hair. Since he made fun of my Chicago "Indians" hat I had to torture him....ahem I mean Blackhawks

Yeah, yeah.

Only Simon spoke french, right? It was fun picking on him.

I was on a roll with those two.

NK · « **Reply #17 on:** Thursday 19 February 2009, 03:11 »

Simon spoke French and when you called him a pansie he had no idea what you meant. Buckey tried to translate but no luck.

That had to be the strangest mid winter moment. Why did he want his hair curled? all I remember is "You have to have a vision!"

We should stop because no one has a clue what we are talking about

Sorry folks for hijacking the thread but this was by far one of the funniest mid winter moments!

ColorDancer · « **Reply #18 on:** Thursday 19 February 2009, 13:25 »

Oh; but I have a video of "the vision". Video's are a project for the weekend.

CindyBug · « **Reply #19 on:** Thursday 19 February 2009, 15:28 »

Great pics Heather. Just like being there..... wait.... I was there

and it was so much fun. I remember even more to some of those moments than met the eyes here

Hope, glad you swabbed your curling iron down well.

I always miss the party...I call myself the "Misfits Misfit" because I can never seem to be in the right place at the right time and miss all of the antics. Well at least I saw the inside of 1411 and the jello shots before they were decimated. They even came with a "map!"

ColorDancer · « **Reply #21 on:** Friday 20 February 2009, 22:41 »

Yes, at first I was called names for making the map, but just think; ALLLLL those people asking "what's the orange one? What's in the purple? Why is there an M on this?" I'd have gone completely mental. Self-serve, everyone!

I think it was a great idea, very smart and organized! Less waste and fewer questions!

The map was great! The Amaretto ones were yummy.

The Tortuga ones were my fav. Heather will need to make them again to take to the Mountain.

Finally got to look at all 3 albums. Funny shots in there! Thanks for sharing.

I thought you were a genius for making the jello shot map. "Amaretto Sours on Aisle One!" Another vote here on those being the bestest!

GardenMiss · « **Reply #27 on:** Saturday 21 February 2009, 16:56 »

I liked the dark green ones...

ColorDancer · « **Reply #28 on:** Saturday 21 February 2009, 18:23 »

Aye, the dark green were the amaretto sour. Those didn't have a very high alcohol content but MAN they did taste good

I for one CRAVE an amaretto sour now and then. I should invent amaretto sour candy

The tartuga and the skittle were recipies I made up myself on the fly; I wasn't a professional liquor slinger for 10 years for nothin lol.

Looks like I'm repeating the jello factory for grandfather!!!!

WeeBlondeC · « **Reply #29 on:** Saturday 21 February 2009, 20:54 »

It's easier to make them there, Heather. Throughout the week, I make a couple large batches.
Some people hike, I make jello

I don't think I've ever premade them to take.

ColorDancer · « **Reply #30 on:** Saturday 21 February 2009, 20:59 »

I'm showing my GFM novice status here, but how on early do you chill them and get them to set???

WeeBlondeC · « **Reply #31 on:** Saturday 21 February 2009, 21:10 »

Cooler with ice - works just fine

Water boiled over the fire - mix and pour - set and eat

Leigh · « **Reply #32 on:** Saturday 21 February 2009, 21:15 »

OMG! you people have the best ideas!! I can't wait to meet you all at GFM!!

ColorDancer · « **Reply #33 on:** Saturday 21 February 2009, 21:32 »

Hmm.... The way I had them in the cooler I had insullated rows of ice; jello stacked in rows then between the dividers; ice em up! They were still cold after 4 days and I never re-iced them; I'll ponder on site though. If I premake, then that's just less stuff to have to take. With my roomie's restaurant; it took me only 2 hours to make near 400 of em.

Thanks for the input, Connie!

SusieMac · « **Reply #34 on:** Sunday 22 February 2009, 04:30 »

"near 400 of 'em". I'm still agog. Agog, I say.
