UTR rundown

OK, so my main memory of UTR is of unbearable heat! Heat, and mosquitoes thinking I'm the best thing since sliced bread! But perhaps my other memory is the one that will last - spending time with some amazing people! The chance to play dress up all weekend, in the best company, has got to be worth the heat and bugs!
The only trouble is, it was so hot I didn't get around to taking very many photos. But I have a sample of my favourites, and will attempt a little write up as well, all under here )
So much for a little write up, this got HUGE! Jenny-Rose's picnic will have to wait till tomorrow I'm afraid! Hopefully, more photos, less waffle!!

I've started a write up of UTR, but it's getting long, and I'm tired, and I still have photos to edit, so you'll have to wait till tomorrow for the blow by blow account! I had a fab time though, in spite of the heat and the bug bites (26!!!!!!!) and really miss all of my costuming buddies :'(
Anyway, I have managed to get the pics up onto photobucket, here they all are, completely unedited so be prepared for a fair percentage of fuzzy and gloomy pics too :D

Now, who can enlighten me as to the hows and whys of Costume Con? The web site is not very clear. Not that this means anything! Although, I have found out it's at the end of my Easter holiday ... and I would appear to have made a tag for it...

As most of you know I think, I can't make it out to CosCol this year either :( We STILL haven't sold the old house, so no funds available, especially for such an expensive trip that has to be planned in advance. We might still sell the house soon, but I would have needed to get plain tickets allready, and membership and tickets etc, so just not feasable :(
BUT, when I was saying this a few weeks ago, [livejournal.com profile] koshka_the_cat reminded me of UTR, I'd said last year how I'd love to go, but being so close to CosCol I wouldn't be able to manage both. Now that that's not a problem anymore I got all excited at the prospect of being able to get to UTR - it's this side of the US, so the flight is about half the cost! And I don't have to make any decisions till nearer the time. I was on tenterhooks till I'd checked with my boss when the yr7 play is, but it's the 3rd week in June, not the last, so it looks like I might make it, if finances allow!!
So, now I get to look forward to the opportunity of seing some of my costuming buddies! Not as many as I'd like, but some is a million times better than none!!!!! Now to plan the wardrobe :D
