Ramblings from the North

So we were home rather decently about 7pm last night. Getting off site about 1pm or just before the massive rain came down on us. Had lunch in Idaho Falls are our fav place to get scones....hmmm scones....Anyways the road home was not bad. Elias and I both where rather tired, he drove I slept off an on, till we get outside Rexburg.

I feel the rumble strip yet again wondering what was going on. He pulled over an I asked if he was alright, he said "We're pulled over". I blinked a few times and leaned forward to see the car behind us. Yep us are pulled over by Idaho's Finest. He seen the truck "weaving" and the cracked windshield. As well wanted to check on what was up and the usual seat belt checks. He asks where we been, where we going. Tell him we went camping in Shelley and going home to Bozeman, and left it at that. Didn't even bring up SCA at this point, safer that way over all.

Elias gives over the drivers license and the insurance card, I'm pawing the jockey box for the registration papers. I can't find them. I put them in the truck after I got the tags an that's that. The guy was good matured about it and said since the tags where good till the end of the month and that everything else was in the clear we where good to go. Just after he leaves, I find the damned registration paper. And away we go again...

And we get to "The Divide" Continental Divide that divides Montana and Idaho, swap drivers so he can pass out an I dive on. On the way home thur that small silver that is Yellowstone we drove past a Black Bear running across the road in front of us. And off the side in the marsh area with fence, some of you know the area I'm talking about, a Moose in velvet sooo purdy. So a SAFE trip home with no encounters with the *^$&% four footed kind that cause messes with trucks.

So I offer here my link to my flickr account with what few picutres I took at Uprising. I was busy with my peer, Duchess Caryn, taking classes, doing the Royal thing, some time at Heralds Point and general fun time. Give me another day and I will give the link to my YouTube. I recorded something special and cool and well seeing is better than me trying to butcher talking about it.

Nothing like zipping the hems of a tunic thur the sewing machine at the last minute at like midnight. Green, short sleeved camp tunic that will need some work next time I have a moment. After last year's Uprising I really did not feel good from the heat. The go go go to get there days after the wedding that I decided that I wanted something that will let me look "dressed" and not die from the heat. In looking at the weather.com page for the next few days....good thing I have wool for at night wanderings. Just pray the rain does not happen till we're everyone off site Sunday.

Currently left to pack now is:

- Get packed for myself
- Fire Pit
- Fire Wood
- Goodies for the Brunch

I say that is rather good short list after yesterday. Getting myself packed is the easy part, making sure I have all I need is another. So we're already off the schedule we set for ourselves, just hope like to get out of here before 10am now.

I lost the first part of this post already. Stupid auto save didn't work, the bastard.

( Rants on Wally world, SCA, and life. Its LONG. . .You've been warned. )

Well its 0430 and I should have been to bed hours ago. But when my brain won't turn off what is a person to do?
