Me. Having an idea.
Yagyu-dono has us organized under the name "Rising Sun." The classic Hinomaru is Japan's national flag and will doubtless give fits to any passing nitpicky heralds if we display it.
What do people think of a gold sun disk (or even better, a half disk) on black as a way to say "We're here" ?
I'll make a banner if folks like it. I've still got half a jar of that gold paint hanging around.......

Not only would I like it I do believe that my Egyptian persona Wife would LOVE it. Of course she would prefer the full disk to the half disk, but we are in Atenveldt so that might conflict with someones device, if I get a chance I will run it through the online armorial and see if it pops up.
;D
As far as meals go if I would be willing to cook a light dinner on Tuesday and Wednesday if somone else wanted to take other days then we could divide things up that way. Then we could fend for ourselves for lunch and breakfast. Although if I do pancakes some morning I would be more then happy to make enough for everyone.
I also have a behind load of camping chairs that I can bring out so we shouldn't have to want for a seat.
I also have a couple of card tables and a small banquet table, so with the other tables mentioned I think that we will have all of that covered.
And Otagiri-dono, it would be an honor to hold camping space for you encase you have the opportunity to camp with us, if it wasn't for you I would not have had this opportunity myself.

Any herald types about? Does "Sable, a demi-roundel or" or "Sable a roundel or" sound anything like what I'm attempting to visualize? Pardon my crappy digital mess. I prefer real drawing utensils. I confess I kind of like the half-disc, myself.

Konban-wa all... I have a Bishamon-ten banner (think Uesugi Kenshin...) I will gladly volunteer to assist with the decorating chores... It's approximately 3' x 5' with the appropriate loops for suspension. Unfortunately my banner poles and portable hole "disappeared" years ago. I am also considering making one, if not two, pavaises (can't remember the appropriate Japanese term at the moment...) That is, if the gods of currency deem us worthy. I will gladly volunteer those too. With regards to the armour display Otagiri-dono suggested, I will gladly volunteer my armour. (When it isn't wrapped around my aging carcass that is. ) While I can't speak for him, I strongly doubt my step-son would mind if we volunteered his armour as well. (Looks like I may need to make another armour stand... ) My wife and I have a free standing, E-Z Up-esque shelter that will be coming along for the trip. If it doesn't get volunteered to provide shade for our tent, I'm sure we can find a use for it somewhere else. While I don't know my way around a kitchen, I will gladly volunteer to assist in any capacity I can... And as far as Otagiri-dono being the cause of all this mayhem... It is my considered opinion he should be sought out, beaten about the head, neck and torso with large rattan clubs until he either can't see straight or has a sh*t eatin' grin on his face... !!! ;D Looking forward to seeing everybody in February. Katayama
