The story thus far…

So the season is a bit more than halfway over and we’ve already had Visalia, Valhalla, Fair Oaks, SLO, Willits, and Pittsburg - and now we’re into the tail stretch with Golden Gate, Jousting Championships, Shasta, Folsom, and Ione.

 The year hasn’t been a bad one, especially with the completely awful weather we saw in 2006. The first quarter of the season being up to armpits in wet and mud, and then then next half of the year in extreme heat. Which capped by the ‘Stupid Hot’ temperatures of Fair Oaks that season - when the weathermen on TV are telling people that they shouldn’t stay outdoors any longer than is absolutely nessicary, then it’s by all means time to give it a rest rather than climbing into heavy clothes and running around in 114 degree heat.

Every year it’s something new and different, and here we are in the halfway point and trying to mull if we’ll make it all the way through.
