upcoming weekends thru Autumn

That's crazy ridiculously over-planned you say? I might tend to agree :)

So we're busy people, traveling, visiting, sometimes working ;) Nearly every weekend from now till September is filled with rest and relaxation time -- or me working every other one...

Feb 14,15 is free yet ;)
Feb 21,22 work
Feb 28,29 Winter War on Saturday, free to recover from crossbow effort on Sunday
Mar 7,8 working, but I took Sat off for an event the local SCA group is hosting - a fencing event that I am running
Mar 14,15 SCA event Hrim Schola for me only on Sat, nada or recovery planned for Sun
Mar 21,22 work
Mar 28,29 visiting friends on the way and fossil beach on the return trip to visit my sister in ST.Augustine, FL!! We're thinking about renting or borrowing an RV for this trip. Ah, it'd be a trip to remember!
Apr 4,5 work
Apr 11,12 free as yet!
Apr 18,19 work
Apr 24-26 camping event in York Haven, PA also visiting friends in Gettysburgh, PA!! Yes, camping in April. Apparently we're addicted to cold toes and noses...

May 16,17 work

Jun 27,28 work
Jul 3-5 our local group hosting another SCA camping event Northern Region War Camp in Warrensburgh, NY. There's heavy combat, fencing, youth combat, siege weapons, thrown weapons, archery, horses, campfires, friends...!
Jul 11,12 work
Jul 18,19 free, but prep for the big two week long camping event in Slippery Rock, PA: Pennsic WAR! (fyi this event actually gets so many attendees that it gets its own zip code for the two weeks!)
Jul 25,26 work (leave to visit friends in Rochester on the way to War- prob will spend my birthday there again as last year's was super relaxing and fun :)
Aug 1,2 Pennsic War!
Aug 8,9 work (and my dad's b-day)

Aug 22,23 work
Aug 29,30 leave for Hampton Beach, NH! A ten day trip where we rent a cottage a block from the boardwalk with Dan's entire family! fun fun fun :)
Sept5,6 work
Sept 12,13 another local SCA camping event (that I am in charge of) called Metalsmiths' Symposium in Lake George, NY
Sept 19,20 work
Sept 26,27 and onward is unplanned so far, except for a few annual SCA events that are ones we plan to go to, if I am not working, but these events are not scheduled as yet... I think I am the only person who actually is as weirdly organized/booked so far in advance (don't feel compelled to agree! :)

Well, gee, I have more 'free' or unplanned weekends than I realized... not that I am complaining even the littlest bit, mind you! More time for family down/home time and local trips to the lake with kids and pups in warmer weather.

Our weekdays are usually entirely free other than daytime YMCA classes for me and the boys (gymnastics, swimming, Karate) and Dan's daily work out regiment. I am hoping to actually complete the Glens Falls/Lake George bike trail this year with the kids. I find it entirely ironic that I say this and there's literally two feet of snow on the ground yet!
