<DIV>Greetings all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I just wanted to take a few moments to thank everyone who volunteered,
helped out, stayed late, cleaned up, set up, and just did everything that needed
to be done to make the Investiture a success. I'm very proud of all of
you, and your willingness to come out in the cold Friday night cannot be thanked
enough.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>From what I saw and heard, everyone seemed to have a good time yesterday,
even if it was terribly cold in the barn. The music was
beautiful, luncheon was great, feast was wonderful (or so I hear), and the
Investiture was memorable. Now, if we can just break our new Baron of
trying to herald his own court....</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>And thank you especially to Lady Katharine, for stepping up and taking
over before I passed out. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Each and every one of you is a friend, and many more like a family.
Thank you again.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Lady Wulfwyn AElfwines dohtor</DIV>
