[MR] Thank you from the Autocrat of Treasures on the Tides

[Danielle Scott]

Greetings to all good gentles,
 
Now that I am finally dry, and have had a moment or two to sleep and put some thoughts together I would like to say thank you to all that braved Mother Natures challenge and attended Treasures on the Tides. It was a wet but wonderful weekend with lots of people enjoying each others company! There are some that I must give my extreme heartfelt thanks to. I wanted to do this during feast so all could put faces with names but I never really made it to the hall except for quick passes through. 
 
So first let me thank Lord Simon for making the hall glow with amber warmth and making sure the hall was set for feast so I could handle other issues that needed to be taken care of. You are a master of lighting!
 
To Baroness Roanna, and Maestra Barbara bless you for handling an autocrats headache, reservations! You took what was a complete nightmare and tamed it beautifully. Between the two of you troll ran smoothly, all adored their tokens and were able to come in and begin the day quickly and happily!
 
To Ladies Orla and Tirzah, the two of you are angels with knives! You guys along with Kadhir, Bruce, Livie, Zwiescka (sp), Akiyo and Mistress Johanna created a days worth of food from heaven! You could tell you put happiness into the cooking because it followed through on the faces of those eating it. 
 
To Tsura, thank you for being the hall draper, you took some rather unpleasant surprises and hid them beautifully so that no one really knew they were there, you also created a focal point for court when we needed to change locations. Your talent is and always will be appreciated by me!
 
There are four households that were there as my support teams both in the physical needs as well as in the emotional needs of an autocrat. Lady Orla, you kept me sane during the days as I planned the event! Yes even autocrats need someone to lean on once in a while, they are Zwerg Burge, Argent Lupe, Wulfshaven, House of Bread and also my sister Alexandria. All of you didn't need me to come to you, instead you let me know that you were there for me and gave me all the support I could ever need. Sometimes, many times before I even knew I needed help you were there! Wulfshaven and Argent Lupe you are white tornados that made the clean-up of the site a dream, I hadn't turned my back for ten minutes to find that not only were the halls broken down but the dorms were spotless! You also rescued many vehicles from the quagmire of mud, including my car from a sneaky ditch. Not only that, but you made my Mom and some people that this was their first event feel like they were a part of something wonderful! For you I am truly blessed!
 
There are many others that have pitched in to make this event a wonderful one and rolled with changes without blinking an eye as contingency plans had to be made pending weather and issues and I may have missed you and for this I apologize for not mentioning you by name but thank you from the bottom of my heart. 
 
There is one last person whom I haven't named that I wanted save because he deserves to be acknowledged as the best for last, this man is none other than Baron Heinrich Kreiner. Though he wasn't my co-autocrat in name he might as well have been, because he was the one there for me from beginning to end, taking my calls and calling to check on me on a daily basis. Not only did you take on the role of Security/Safety officer but also that of Marshall in Charge, both very time consuming jobs when running a weekend event at a site like Rocks, but you also worked on contingency plans and reworked things that could have been a nightmare then let me know it was handled before I even knew there was an issue. You kept me calm and relaxed when I didn't think I could handle another "surprise" thrown my way, including when my mundane world decided to become a nightmare. I am truly blessed to have you and Maestra Barbara as my second set of parents and to be able to call you Da. Thank you.
