Blackrock Medieval Summerfest

I stupidly forgot to take my camera for the opening weekend, alas. Their facebook page has some good pictures scattered about:

I'll be back there on the 28th, and plan to take photos this time, darnit!

I agree that it was a really good time. The dust is really the only issue, but that is likely to get better with time. The people there are all very upbeat and energetic. The optimism is fueling a really positive energy that is very infectious. I'm also optimistic that this one will only get better with time.

We went to the faire on Saturday.

Wow, what a great faire already! Considering it's the first year and second weekend, it's pretty sweet.

I have a few pictures posted at the link below with more to add as time allows this week.

Here's a shot looking down one of the vendor isles from a hillside pathway...

I was back to this wonderful festival on the 28th, and as before I had a great time. I posted pictures from my crappy little mini-camera here:

Sorry they're not better quality, but when I'm in costume it's hard to take a big and bulky SLR with me. My next project will have to be making a "periodish" bag for the thing so I can still be in garb and take decent photos as well!
