Sunday, get up around 10 and do the usual morning routine. 2-3 Uncle Kage's Story Hour for more lolz. 3:30-5 more team fur-suit games. 6-7 closing ceremonies. 9-3 the dances. Tonight they had blue-screens setup for the projectors and furies were being naughty behind them, lots of lolz resulted. Also, someone Rick-rolled the dance. In addition, I feel it's worthwhile to mention shortly after closing ceremonies I bumped into Duncan the Dog and we hung out for a bit before & after the dance. Since I didn't have a room tonight he let me stay in his. Monday morning I had the chance to talk with him and get to know him a little. He's a really nice guy. And his suit is adorable, photos/vids simply can not do it justice. I didn't really want to leave when I did Monday as was enjoying talking with him. Hopefully we can get to know each other better, not sure why but I sensed a kindred spirit when talking with him, I felt more at ease around him then I do with most people, odd I know. I'm not sure yet, but if I can make arrangements I plan to invite him to RMFC which is a local fur-con. *Hugs n scritchies to the uber cute husky, malamute, wolf mix*
Summary - I had a great time and am glad I could make it, and many heart felt thanks to Duncan, a new furiend.
