Give My Regards to Wiscon

I won't be at WisCon this year.  DH is turning 60 the same weekend and decided to throw himself a big party.  Since the first 15 weeks of this year were so tough on him, and he seriously didn't think he was going to make it to this birthday, I couldn't really object to celebrating one more circuit of the sun.  Usually I do Wiscon Friday to Sunday and spend Monday with DH.  But we're flipping it around this year. 

Some good friends offered the use of their farmhouse and land, so we've got a crowd gathering on Saturday afternoon, kegs of homebrew (Porter and Amber), a bluegrass/ newgrass band playing after dinner (Piper Road Spring Band), and an old fashioned "Low Country Boil" for dinner.  There will be musical jamming all day, and a bonfire after dark, and people spending the night in tents and such. Sunday will be farm-fresh brunch, cleanup and recovery.  It will be fun (even though I'm more of an 80's music gal), but alas, there won't be any fangirls (that I know of) attending.

I'm thinking I might be able to break away for lunch or an afternoon meetup with anyone who is still hanging around on Monday, so if you're up for it, please let me know.  I'd be delighted if all I got to do was hang out in the lobby and hug on people who I might not see otherwise.
