Galician, great to see a visitor coming for Celtic Fest. I've sent a couple of PMs.

Anyone planning on attending should PM Brewboy for directions to his condo. He has graciously invited us for brunch before the fest on Saturday!!!!

Sorry guys, can't make it. The weather is bad, and I can't get transportation.

Looks like Greg is the smart one...

...man the boats! Pishing would be a bit of an understatement...I've got Lake Walter Burley Griffin in my back yard as I type!

This ought of be interesting...

I agree. We've had 4 inches so far and no end in sight. Ike is supposed to bring us 4-6 inches more in the next day or so. I guess Celtic Fest is toast (very soggy toast).

I'm still heading down there...should get there by two PM, though due to the weather. Hope to see some of you there...

I was down there earlier for a delicious brunch with Brewboy and Galician. We walked over the the fest, but the rain was too much for me. I may be back tomorrow if the weather is better, but with Ike heading towards Chicago and likely to drop 4-6" here, I am beginning to doubt it.
