Pennsic War XXXI Aug 9-17

Rob & Martel before we left Austin.

This year I got to go to my first Pennsic War. It is the largest SCA event; there were approximately 13,000 people. It is held every year in Aug at the Cooper's Lake campground in Pennsylvania. Rob & I drove straight through the night with all our stuff so that Teresa could fly in with the baby. It was so hot and humid that Teresa and Martel returned home early on Wed. morning.

We camped with Cynnabar, the barony that Rob & Teresa belonged to when they were living in Ann Arbor, MI.
