I don't generally like getting hit on by people...faire is one of the few places that it doesnt bother me...lol

Scarby needs to happen faster!

[Merlin]

Probably because people seem to be more respectful and less..... ummm... obnoxious horn dogs.

[ArielCallista]

lol yaa...or its more sarcastic and for funsies at faire...I just can't wait to meet a ton of new people at rendezvous!

[Merlin]

I have to say.... I have met some really neat people at Scarby.

Queen Bonnie.... Martin Montgomery... the Yard Troll and his lovely fairy wife.... Blue.... Chris and his wonderful family..  LOT'S and lots more....

I may even shave my head again.... It's a royal pain in the arse....but it goes with the Merlin.

[LadySeasan]

I have some sad news...I will no longer be +1 at rendezvous...or in life...Greg left me yesterday...I will still be there...I'll just be alone...

dont worry love. im sure you will have a great time with all of us!

I know I am probably being anal about this, since it's almost 3 months away still, but what is the typical Texas weather the third weekend in April?

Now I realize somebody might say, "wow, last year we had the biggest snowfall/heat spell/thunderstorms the area has ever known," but how is the temperature usually at that time of year?

We are coming by plane, and are planning to only do carry ons, because the baggage fees get expensive, so we really need to par down to just bring the essentials (meaning more room for garb, not every day clothes).

Thanks for your help!   

[Joyce "Delfinia DuSwallow" Howard]

That is the exact same thing I'm wondering!

Ok. I can speak for Texas weather... or, well, Houston weather anyways. Late April is usually on the warm side, but never stiflingly hot. It's a tad humid at times, and sometimes rainy. It never rains for more than about 20 minutes, and there's a good amount of breeze. Overall, I would say that the mornings are cool, the afternoons are warm, so if you dress in layers, remember to wear something that can easily be shed in the afternoon hours.

Luckily, at Scarby, there are plenty of places to duck out of the weather if need be, and lots of shady trees. April weather is never a problem.

April in the Dallas area 50's at night and 70's day.  Not to much rain though when it does it's normally either an all day sprinkle or a hour long down pour. 

Lots of trees and shops at Scarby.  Not a whole lot of open area outside of the joust area and a couple small patches.

Its really going to depend as the days get closer. We've had an extremely off winter, with snow in North Texas and the metroplex area. The weather could do anything, we just have to wait and see. We could get lucky and it'll be clear and cool or sunny but not stifling.

[Merlin]

It's always great weather at the faire !

Parking on the other hand...

[Merlin]

Get there early and parking is a breeze. Now....getting out is another story. I recommend leaving about 20 minutes early or plan on partying in the parking lot for about 40 minutes after.... either way... stop at the privies first!
