Hi Dark!!!

Sounds like a fun day!! The artists at a fair are fun to talk with. I have seen some wonderful work. One year there were huge wood sculptures, sculpted from huge tree trunks and roots. Items such as bed posts and frame work to lawn decorations. So cool. I especially enjoy the jousting tournament.

The food is wonderful too, turkey legs, apple fritter like thingys, all goodies from the period. The last time I attended was in the 90's and throughly enjoyed it.

Didn't see any sculptures, as we were getting rained on after a bit, but I did see another pencil sketch artist like myself there.
Didn't get to sample the food ,we were there to wander about and 'scout' what there is for the next trip down. (Shopping invasion. Battle cries of "Buy! Buy!! BUY!!!" At least, that's wat I'm going to be hearing next time around.)

I, of course, was eyeing the SCA combat style weapons. (Blunted swords designed for recreated fight scenes and such.)
Didn't get to wander the whole site due to rain and some mild time constraints. :/
