@OccasionalDucks The #Binghamton Morris Men go one step further and don't do such rubbish. The #Syracuse teams do, though, and we're about to go off and watch.

Six morris dancers with white shirts and trousers and grey suspenders, decorated with red and blue ribbons, are in a street that is wet from recent rain. Behind them are more morris dancers, watching. At the back is a large Tudor revival inn.

The same as always since 1977, only different

Six morris dancers with white vests, shirts, and trousers, decorated with red, blue, and yellow ribbons, are dancing around a circle in a street that is wet from recent rain. To their right someone is making a video, and on the far right are two musicians playing melodeons. Behind them are more morris dancers, some dressed similarly and some in black vests, watching. At the back is a large Tudor revival inn.

The 2025 Gilbertsville Morris Tour is over and I came back with a big smile. The weather sucked but it didn't interfere other than to move two stands indoors. The new lunch venue and new beer venue both worked out very well. Everything went so smoothly I could almost forget about running things and just enjoy the great company and good dancing.

Six weeks out from the Gilbertsville morris tour. We've made a decision about where and how to do lunch (differently than we'd done it every year from 2003 to 2024). Still have to figure out the last stand and pub. It's coming together though.

Six morris dancers (Bouwerie Boys Morris Dancers) are dancing for an audience in the street in front of an old building. The dancers and musician wear white shirts and trousers, black vests, red socks, black shoes, colored ribbons on black arm bands, and bells on the shins; they are holding white hankies which are raised overhead. Each has a red rose pinned to the left breast of the vest. The musician plays a fiddle. Photo taken in Gilbertsville, New York, April 2024.

Worked on five dances at yesterday's practice! Two Bampton, three Ducklington. Building a good repertoire for small sets.

The #Binghamton Morris Men practiced! For the first time in, uh, a while. Started working up some new Ducklington stuff. It was good.

Y'know, this morris tour was *supposed* to be virtually self-organizing. Do the same thing we've done since 2018, most of which is the same thing we've done since 2003. Because no one's gonna go out of business or cease to offer the same services after all these years right?

Right?

Arrrgh.

Each winter, as January approaches, Eric Laine of Binghamton, New York, sits down with his wife and kids to write New Year’s resolutions … New Year’s climate resolutions.

Laine: “It is a way for us to talk about the importance of doing our part … We’re led to believe that we make so little difference, really, the actions of one person or one family. But in reality, we can do quite a bit.”

A shaggy haired warrior, in a red robe and black cape, mugging for applause at the front of a church sanctuary. A plywood sword hangs from his sash, he is holding a pot lid as a buckler, and Chekov's tape measure is on his belt. A recorder player watches from behind.

Five morris dancers (one mostly obscured except for two hands and one foot), wearing white with purple neckerchiefs and colored arm ribbons, are performing a hanky dance on a concrete paved area with open sides and a wood framed roof adjacent to a building. They are facing different directions, in motion with hands high. A musician, wearing white with a black vest, colored arm ribbons, a knee brace, and a straw top hat decorated with ribbons and feathers, is at the right playing melodeon for them. A number of people, mostly morris dancers in varied kit, are watching at the back.

About thirty morris dancers pose for a group photo on a concrete paved area near a view over a lake. The B. F. Harridans wear white with purple neckerchiefs and colored arm ribbons. Their musician wears white with a black vest, colored arm ribbons, and a straw top hat decorated with ribbons and feathers. The Bassett Street Hounds (mostly) wear tatters (two are in everyday clothes). Hart's Brook Garland wears lavender floral vests; their musician is dressed similarly and holds a mandolin. Pokingbrook wears white with green baldrics with a rosette at the crossing; a musician, dressed similarly, holds another mandolin. Another musician, not sure whose, wears a dark aloha shirt.

Five morris dancers, wearing white with purple neckerchiefs and colored arm ribbons, are performing a hanky dance in an area paved with pavers in front of the Watkins Glen State Park Gift Shop. They are in a tight circle facing inward, in motion with hands high. A musician, wearing white with a black vest, colored arm ribbons, and a straw top hat decorated with ribbons and feathers, is in front playing for them. A few people are watching at the back. On the right are another dancer and a musician, also in white but with different colored rosettes and ribbons on the arms.
