[MR] Late(?) but not forgotten!

[Olwen the Odd]

It seems I am getting forgetful and I either did this before and forgot, or 
never did more than good intentions so I am finally getting to this.

I wanted to give proud and heartfelt thank you to the generous folks who 
donated time and items to the silent auction held at Crown Tourney.  Without 
all of your support and contributions we could not have had such a 
delightful and successful auction!

All number of merchants, even some from other Kingdoms!, made generous 
donations.  I made sure your cards were attached to the items so they know 
where to go or send friends to for more items!

Several artisans of all nature (including armoring!) made wonderful 
donations.

I want to say one special thank you to a woman (newbie) who made a special 
"show stopper" of a hand made doll, which, in the end did not sell as the 
opening bid was what it cost her to make and we simply would not accept less 
(look for it on E-Bay?).  Cassie, thank you!  And thank you also for making 
and presenting at feast that wonderful tribute to our new Princess, Rachel 
(I heard Cuan was enjoying the frosting!).

In closing, I can not say enough thanks to all the members of the St. 
Mathias Guild here in Bright Hills, and to the sturdy souls who sat 
attendance at the tables, including, but not limited to:  Mistress Ingveld 
and Lord Owen, Lady Szilagy Margit, Grainne(sp), and all the others whose 
names and devotions I can not attest to because I simply dreamed up doing 
this, was one who called for donations and volunteers and helped set it up 
before walking away to other duties in the kitchen.

I am in your debt.  St. Mathias is in your debt.  The Kingdom Travel fund is 
in your debt.
My gracious thank you.

Inn keeper!  Another round on me to salute friends who devote themselves to 
making dreams come true!

Cariad a heddwch (love and peace)
