Brandon,
Welcome to Xmarks. Where in Illinois are you? There are a few of us spread throughout the state, but also a good number in and around Chicago. Watch the "kilt night" section of the forum for when we are getting together. (You don't need to have a kilt yet!) Also, what Ren Fair? I am looking forward to Bristol (Il and WI border)

I am in Southern Illinois near Carbondale. So I am a bit far from Chicago. The Renn Faire I use to was the Tennessee Renn Faire near Nashville, but that is because I use to live in Tennessee for 6 years.
