Yes, the laptop I'm borrowing likes my camera. So, I've uploaded a few of the pictures and even some video to Flickr.
First, Mom's kirtle. I finished it last night. It has about 30 something eyelets to lace up the sides. Mom didn't want a front lacing or back lacing outfit. I found out that all she really wants is a bunch of a-line tunics. I have an old silk one that I was trying to sell at the yard sale. It has issues, like princess seams, but it's pink and it's silk and Mom wanted it. So, I essentially have two outfits down. The green linen will now be an A-line tunic. I'm still going to do a silk Florentine for her, but that will pretty much be it for garb. Well, other than the chemises but those are easy.

Second, my Eleanor gown. I've worked on it quite a bit since this picture. I'll probably be finishing up the partlet tonight and tomorrow and start on the sleeves by Wednesday.

I have recut the partlet and made it to fit beneath the dress better. The collar for the partlet is done and the back of the dress will be done by tonight. (I was working on it yesterday afternoon during the yard sale and got a lot of the back of the dress done.)
Third, the Potomac Celtic Festival on June 14. It was so much fun even if it did rain. You could watch the storm coming in. Luckily, by the time the storm headed in, I was halfway to the music tent. I wanted to hear Tinsmith and a few of the other bands play so I got well into the tent before the rain started. Miss Ginsie did come with me and found a lot of new human friends. I swear, that dog ate more food than me that day!
Fourth, the thunderstorm. I want to say this was taken around June 15th. I think it was the day after Potomac Celtic but I'm really not sure. It was sometime recently. In a couple of places, I think my accent gives away where I'm from.
Fifth, my rather interesting attempt at doing the Princess Leia on Bespin hairdo...

and last, but not least, Barbarossa...my fish.

Sorry for the unclear picture but my camera doesn't like clear plastic/glass at all.
