It's Folk Fest Time!

Hard to believe that in a week Erin and I will be in Winnipeg getting everything packed for Baggiecon and heading out to Bird's Hill Park and the Winnipeg Folk Festival bright and early to set up our campsite once again. We have a new tent this year, so odds are we'll have a storm, but hopefully not. We also have a new bed, as Erin liked the idea of getting a cot like Lana has, which will also allow us to store stuff under it. Given the new tent is smaller than our old tent this will be useful. We'll be heading north on Monday this year so we can stop and visit our friends Donna and Terry in Piney and stay at their ReTreat for a night, and then drive on to the Bhigg House in Winnipeg on Tuesday. Then we'll have more time to get all the group camping gear squared away and packed and not have all the back and forth poor Dave Clement and Karen Cooper had to do last year when his own tent wasn't all there.

Of course we're looking forward to the folk festival, with this being my fifteenth year and Erin's thirtieth. If you're curious about it, you can check out their website below. Baggiecon has been happening since 1988 and it's always a good time, even the Year We Almost Died. (A storm blew down everything that year.) Five days of fine music at the folk fest and five nights of fun in the campground with fine company.
