One of the reasons we got such a great bunch of friends is Steph. We don't want to embarrass her anymore so we'll just be blunt. Sociable and charming and smart, she draws like-minded people. And she brings them to our fires.
Mungo and Mrs. Mungo are honored by this. Friendship means more to us even than money (obviously). So we decided to return the honor and make Steph this year's sacrifice.
This 8-minute, 42-second video of the sacrifice comes to us thanks to Marcel, a.k.a. TCB. A higher-resolution version is available by email. Just ask.
We think it came out great under the circumstances. He had to work without a tripod and says he "hates the way it went all Cloverfield" on him. At 7:25 you can tell the camera slips from his fatigued fingers and is caught in mid-fall. That's his voice you hear every once in a while.
Another thing you'll hear in the video is applause. We love applause and we think the greenman deserves applause, but for some reason no one ever applauded before. So thanks to the person who applauded.
And thank you all for an enchanted evening.
