Feast and Foolishness A Parliment of Foules
(2011-02-26 - Site opens at 9 AM & Closes at 8 PM)
Highland Foorde

Nature is convening a parliament at which the birds will all choose their mates. Our two male eagles are competing for the hand of the maiden but we are certain that the birds of lower estates will have something to say about that. Which eagle will make his case to win the hand of the maid? Or will Nature make the final decision? Come join the Barony of Highland Foorde in celebrating l\'amour, or just join us for a day of gaming, fun, and food. Outrageous feathered hats, capes and costumes are very welcome. So, leave behind your travel mug and avoid the drive-thru as your day begins at 9 am with the first Feast remove of morning fare (breakfast). Mama Java will of course be available.
