Sticking with this Sunday.  Something about the prospect of a million screaming kids makes me want to hide under my couch.

Come on, it's only like 750,000 kids.  ;) So, we'll see you in a few minutes then. Right?  ;D

Actually, if you like kids and smaller crowds Friday is a nice relaxing day to go.  The wife and I had a lot of fun messing with the wee ones.  

Outside the gate before open, a grandmother was trying to get a picture of her granddaughter who was not being cooperative.  I had my pirate gear on, so I stroll up, draw my pistol and tell the little girl "
One way or another you're gonna get shot, either by that camera or this pistol, it's your choice."  She sat right down, smiled and the picture was taken.  The grandma was cracking up and thanked me, it was great fun.  I'm bummed I can't be there today,   :'(
Nothing better in life than enjoying a pint amongst friends...Huzzah!

Very empty on Friday.

These three photos were taken between 12 noon and 2 pm. Nearly a ghost town in some areas of the festival.







Fare thee Well.

Yep, that was pretty much all the views we had all day. But it was nice to window shop without fighting the crowds.

It was nice to meet you Eric.

Sweet.  Always wondered what the grounds will look like after the zombie holocaust.

Very nice to meet you too, Jon.  And it nice to meet Canonman, as well.  It was very nice to meet two other of the RF'ers on Friday and chat for a moment.
Fare thee Well.

We ran into Canonman once on Friday. It was in the morning and I was wondering where he was the rest of the day.

Eric of Lyon

I don't recall what time it was when I ran into him, but it was back by the Washing Well Wenches.   You were also back there shooting in the back of the crowd.  We were by the back "Special Events" gate nearest that stage.
Fare thee Well.

Darn it. I must be blind! I only caught a glimpse of you once or twice on Friday too.
