Words fail me as I try to describe the wonderful experience we had at Bloody this year, so many good friends came to us and were so happy to see us back at what we love to do best, which is cooking and sharing our lives.
At one time our future was in doubt, we felt at our darkest hour that it was the support and prayers of our reenacting Sisters and Brothers that bore us up and filled our sails as we navigated stormy waters.
We had many fine folks volunteer to help setting up and also our neighbors kept a watchful eye on us during the Event to see if we needed assistance, you could literally feel the love and concern of those around us.
We are humbled by this outpouring of genuine concern and hope that in the future we may rise to help others as we have been borne aloft.
One of the truly touching moments was when Doyle was surprised by the Gang of Scouts who have lived off our back door for as long as he has been setting up at Bloody, they brought him an apron that has a tag on it the is reversible, one side says "Naughty" and the other "Nice".
You can imagine which side he chose to display.....
When you think of how easily we could have not been here this season, it makes one truly believe that no man is an island and that we can all help each other just by a good thought, prayer and a little action now and again.
We are the living proof of the love of our friends....
