MFF 2009: Day Four - The Toledo Vortex


I had Beatles tunes (as sung by the Bee Gees and Aerosmith) stuck in my head all night, but managed to sleep soundly. The morning light streamed in bright and clear once again.


[livejournal.com profile] sassy_fae and I took our leave of [livejournal.com profile] halfelf and [livejournal.com profile] leonard_arlotte, and ate a mostly healthy breakfast in the con suite.


And that was that! Our time in con space was over, but we still faced the long and winding road (DUN DAH! DUN DAH! That leeeads to your doooor...) back to Hamilton...

Driving to Toledo, whether we liked it or not )

MFF 2009: Day Three - Pyat and the March of the Furries


This image is not technically from Day Three, but I like it, so here it is. [livejournal.com profile] sassy_fae with some dealer's room swag.

Saturday dawned bright and clear, and came with the realization that [livejournal.com profile] sassy_fae and I had not yet breakfasted at an obscure local eatery we'd discovered last year. I believe it's called the "IHOP," which is short for, "I Hate Other Pancakes." I doubt you've heard of it.

MFF 2009: Day Two - Pyat amongst the Martians

I slept very soundly, and awoke to bright sunshine on Friday morning. Friday morning was the appointed time for [livejournal.com profile] leonard_arlotte's traditional Cheese Quest, an annual pilgrimage to the Mars Cheese Castle in Kenosha, Wisconsin. This was my first year taking part in the journey, and I was not disappointed.


Leonard and the Fae one!

[livejournal.com profile] sassy_fae, [livejournal.com profile] leonard_arlotte and I piled into [livejournal.com profile] halfelf's car and we journeyed northward into the wilds of Wisconsin...

MFF 2009: Day One - Pyat and the Illegal Oranges

[livejournal.com profile] sassy_fae (aka Jenn) came by bright and early last Thursday morning. It was grey and cloudy, but the weather was warm and traffic was clear. We made good time to the border, pausing in Strathroy, Ontario to empty bladders and stretch.


November 2008!


November 2009!

We reflected on the difference a year had made in the local weather - those pics are of the same house and section of parking lot.
