Renaissance Faire Weekend

It was a pretty fun weekend, we played The Scene on Friday night. The usual suspects. Yada yada. I was pretty wiped out after the week's events, seeing as how I went out almost every night last week -- totally unlike me. I slept until almost noon on Saturday morning and then Chuck and I hit the Renaissance Faire at The Castle in Muskogee.

The Ren Fair was SO fun! We ate like pigs, and since we were sharing everything, it wasn't too bad. I think we ate a turkey leg, a funnel cake, corn on the cob, some elk bites, a few Killian's, and some honey roasted almonds. The bird of prey exhibition was fantastic -- the photos are GREAT! The jousting was also a blast, pretty fun to see guys get whacked off their horses, even if it is a little bit stagey.

I was surprised to see how large the Ren Fair has become -- I haven't been in the past few years, and to see it this year and how everything's developed...wow. Shoutouts to Ed & Diane, it was great to see you both again (and in costume no less, ROCK!)

I promise pics but first I have to get them off someone's camera *hint-hint*. Soon as he gives 'em up I'll publish 'em! :D Hang tight and have a good week!
