As I'm packing my things to take the 2 hour trip South to Manchester, NH, for Birka 2014, it dawned on me that there may be others who will be also be attending this year.  Not exactly a Faire, basically a big SCA event, but definitely a gathering of like-minded folks.

Here is their website for info: http://www.birka.org/cms/ if you've never been to or heard about this event.

Hopefully I'll see some of you there!

It was lovely to see some old friends at Birka this year and make some new friends also. 

The event seems to be growing in popularity and also in esteem, judging by the efforts I noted in the costumes people made specifically for the Fashion Show. 

I was disappointed not to see some of the vendors who have been there in years past, but there were also some new faces with some wonderful wares.  I left with a bunch of goodies and am looking forward to next year's Birka!
