A dilemma...
Jul. 20th, 2006 08:13 pmConvivencia or Atlantian Coronation, that is the question.
Convivencia is closer.
The cook is a known quantity (and that's in the plus column)
Coronation is *not* in Virginia
Coronation is not in "northern Atlantia"
Coronation is in North Carolina, within our operating radius
We can peddle our wares at either
We can't go to both.
Megan has gotten a bit (a lot?) soured on selling at SCA events in Maryland. It feels like we've sort of saturated the market, and she's made peeved remarks about "taking my looms and playing somewhere else". On the other hand, North Carolina is sufficiently "remote" from here that we don't go there much, and so she has not rejected the idea out of hand. We haven't made it to the last several coronations because they've been in Virginia.
I haven't found a compelling case for picking one over the other; certainly I don't have any political statements to make by not showing up for coronation. I like Ragnar, and I don't know of any reason to be worse than neutral about Anneke. I don't know her very well (to the point that I can't summon up an image of her face in my mind). I haven't heard any rumbles that would give me the slightest concern, therefore I give her the benefit of any doubt and presume the best.
We ought to make up our minds soon, but...
