The History of the Kingdom of The West
The Thirty-sixth Year

The Barony celebrated Madness by the light of a full moon! We Howled, danced, and hit each other! Occasionally, all at once! All a true western Lunatic could possibly have needed lunacy presented by experts, for experts, and lots of chances for purely metaphorical injuries!!

There were contests (physical and mental), games (physical and mental), singing (physical and mental), talking (probably about overused jokes in Page copy), and story telling enough for all...but you had to watch out for the werewolves ... (no, not the kind who wear black and write poems in gaming magazines) Werewolves? There wolves. There castle. There Barony...

We gathered at Coyote Lake County Park on Friday, August 3,and stayed until Sunday, August 5.
