OK I'm not cursing this but the weather reports say 76 cloudy with a 20% chance of rain. Others say 63 and thunder storms. So it looks like it COULD be chill or quite nice to some showers to down right raining.

Well this is Colorado so this will change in about 5 minutes. I say expect the weather not to be what you expect it to be, as it will not be what the weather people expected it to be when they expected it to be that way.

Personally, I think it would be wonderful to have rain on opening day! I so love it when it rains at faire. Either way, I'll be sure to keep our cloaks handy, just in case.

Rain or shine - either is ok with me just loving the fact that it's not supposed to be in the 90's like it has been. 

Only hope the sun comes out during the "jousting" so I can get some good pics of that.  Went to the Scottish festival in Estes last year and it was very cloudy (dark) rained pretty hard so the pics I got of the jousting were less than great which is why I haven't posted any of them yet

How many of you remember the year the vendors were shoveling the white stuff the first weekend of faire - hail that is!?

YES! Oh, please, yes. Just a little. That would be AMAZING! Nothing beats huddling under a cloak with a hot man and cold glass of cider.  :-*

I remember the mudslides,  the freezing fog,  and melting hot heat.    I know we've had snow in June but I was not at the site when it has happened.

We've got it all.
