Yay! Cool new imports to the West!

[acanthusleaf]

Lords and Ladies of the West Kingdom, I am delighted to introduce you to a lovely family who has relocated here from Caid.

Lasairfhoina ni Chon Chonnacht, OL (red_goldilocks ) and Wulfric Thjostolfson OP (viking_monkey ). They served as Baron and Baroness of Gyldenholt (Orange County) for five years (I think).

[That's La-sa-REE-na for us less-Gaelicly inclined]

Danger, This is another red-headed cooking laurel who sews, knits, and is generally crafty and awesome. She was apprenticed to Joeguppy before being elevated. I especially want all my foodie friends to meet her, as I know you will all hit it off and make her feel welcome. This is her Caidan Laurel Page: http://laurels.sca-caid.org/Lasairfhiona.htm

Baron Wulfric (yes, the Caidan Wulfric has moved up here nearby the Western Wulfric, but we will find a way to cope. :-)) He fights as well, so I'm hoping to induce them to come to a FP at Brion and Ysa's. This is his Caidan Pelican Page: http://pelicans.sca-caid.org/pel_wulfric.htm

They have two lovely and active daughters in that preteen stage where they don't slow down long enough for me to guess at or remember their ages. Dana and Katie are very sweet girls who last I knew, were actively involved in the SCA. Lasairfhoina's eldest daughter has just finished her freshman year at UC Santa Cruz. The family is in Vacaville, and Wulfric is actively job-searching. I hope I can induce him to post, which he does rarely, and tell us what he's looking for. 

I extend them a warm welcome, and I do hope my Western friends will introduce themselves either here or in a message to get them acquainted with you all, that they not feel isolated living in an unfamiliar kingdom. We are totally the winners in having these folks in the West!

I think I met her near the battlefield last weekend, sitting with the Queen of Caid. Vacaville?...They aren't too far from Brion and Ysa's.

Quit rubbing it in! We're going to miss them.

Sadly, that was not I. Last weekend I was knee-deep in packing boxes and moving trucks :) I am looking forward to meeting you!

[red-goldilocks.livejournal.com]

Wow - you make us blush :) Thank you for the spectacular intro...you make us sound far cooler than we are :)

[acanthusleaf.livejournal.com]

Hey, I'm just helping out here! :-) I got a very nice reception when I moved south, and I hope to arrange the same for them.

I miss you, Luiseach. Take care.

It's my pleasure, and

Nuh-uh!

[ermine-rat.livejournal.com]

It sounds like we're fairly close by, and I look forward to meeting you and your family.

[takadai-no-tora.livejournal.com]

I miss you too and unfortunately, it's likely to be a while before we see each other again since my work schedule won't let me go to GWW.

Welcome new friends, from a friendly neighborhood Viking girl. You're welcome with my house anytime if you're a friend of Morgan's! :)

[joeguppy.livejournal.com]

Morgan, what a wonderful introduction!

But waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, I miss them! Le Siiiiigh.

HAHAHAHAHA...no, they are the temporary tattoo work of one fabulous Sir Richard of Aldertree, who is ever ready at our events with his sharpie and calligraphic skillz. The hell no was my answer to volunteering related questions for the forseeable future, since I just stepped down not too long ago ;)

Heck, I thought it was Champclair. I'd have to look it up.

Welcome to the West! I look forward to getting to know you.

Miss them already...sigh...

Hi, sweetie! We were talking about you and the Bear a few days ago--Capone's on Arlington Avenue, which he inttroduced us to, has become our new favorite pizza place!

[marymont.livejournal.com]

I'm sure he's watching this exchange and sporfling like mad. He's like that.

[dernelof.livejournal.com]

Yay! Welcome from a former Caidan. It's lovely here.

RAT!

The infamous R.A.T. lives on? Cool. btw - nice ink.

- Husam, who might be remembered as Yoshio by the aforementioned sharpie-wielder, but I'm taking no bets on anyone's memory of excess drinking under the BC 20 years ago or more.


(And BTW - Be nice to these folks. If y'all're not, we'll take them back and you lose your deposit!)
