The Great Lakes Gathering was held at Totem Pole Campground in Michigan. It was supposed to be June, but it felt more like January. We had a great time anyway and I learned alot and got to hang out with some of the best people on the planet.
Oh, and ZombieFred was there too.

ZombieFred's campground. Those talking tombstones were incredible.

Fortunately, we had a covered area to hold all the valuble props.

Tim showing us a foam mask. This is the same material as seat cushions. Anybody got an old couch they want to get rid of?

Tim showed us how easy they cut with just an ordinary electric carving knife

This is Keary and his wife Beth (you'd be pulling your hair if you were married to Keary)

Here we are as Mistress CeLynn and Hubby help us build a fake fire

Thirsty and Ironman, up to no good no doubt!

This is the basic fan structure. A piece of aluminum bolted to a 11 watt muffin fan, with 2 aluminum triangles to alter the air flow.

Tim working feverishly trying to hold it all together.

ZombieFred, gritting his teeth, trying to bend aluminum.

KKrazyKKaren's hubby Brian, Thirsty, and in front Zombie's wife and little ghoul.

Keary's wife just would not leave that blanket!

Does anyone notice how "friendly" KKrazyKKaren is with Mistress CeLynn

KKrazyKKaren and CeLynn showing what they think of me. Thirsty in the background doing his best to keep from bumping into the floating latern. Lady Iron showing her true colors.

Campfire! Warmth finally.

Lining up to beat the pinata.

Scrambling for candy.

There's still more candy in there!

Of course the pinata was a tombstone. What else would it be?

Phantom flames!

Thank You Mistress Celynn!
