Come join the fun this weekend at the Gloucester Renaissance Festival. It's held in the town square and there abouts. Not a huge faire but fun nontheless. Admission is free!!! Hither Dither and Yon, Sashenka, Madam Zuza and others will be performing. There will also be vendor/friends there that you know..............Bob the Nut Guy, The Box guy (Pat) and others as well. It was a lot of fun last year, which was their first. This year being the second and more people knowing about it, should prove even better. Come join the fun!!!

Break a leg guys.I know you all will do good this weekend! ;D
Can't make it... out of town that weekend. Sounds like a really cool event though. I love the idea of the masquerade ball... I want to play! AAH!
I'm hoping to come out and play on Saturday! Depends on how the potential schedule conflict for that day sorts out, though...
Oooo *happy dances* This faery will so be there...the closest one to me (since I live on 17), AND it's free....I"m so there!! I need a faire fix!! :D
Darn it now i'm jealous.Hear it is a bunch of beautifal women (especially fairies) will be there and I won't.But on the bright there's always next year though. ;D
Booger. No faire for me. That makes me 0-2 for Gloucester. :(
Don't worry Feline just like me theres always next year at Gloucster.
It was a blast!! ;D Not much to do, and not many playtrons...but it was so darned cute and some great people!! It was nice to go someplace where the prices aren't outragous as well! (I found myself a faery goblet finally!!) Defnitely going back next year (hoping it won't be as hot as it was today!)
I'm keeping my head up and hoping that next year i will be able to go as well.Hopefully i will see you there.
I'm looking forward to going back next year...and taking friends!!
Mel/Maggie was pretty enthusiastic about it when we talked about it at the Richmond Faire-thing last year so I was really looking forward to this year. Oh well, as Kit says, there's next year! :)
Thats the spirit! Spoken like a true rennie. ;D
This fest is coming up again in a few months! I've been looking forward to it since last year! Anyone else planning on attending? ;D
I will be attending on Saturday the 18th and will be bringing the Renaissance Bubble Machine. I met Sir Black Wolf of Medieval Fantasies at a small Faire in Pennsylvania a few years ago and have wanted to visit one of his events. As I live in a small Colonial town also (New Castle, Delaware- founded 1651), I thought it would fun to visit a Faire held on the streets of a Colonial era town. Alas, it will be for only the one day as it is about a six hour drive, down on Friday and back on Sunday. Please stop by to say hello... Felix the Bubble Wright
BUMP! Anyone else going...? C'ya there........... The Bubble Wright
Might be!
My job will determine whether or not I will be able to come this year.
BubbleWright,
I'll be there as I just found out that I am off this weekend. See ya there my friend.
I'm already here. The drive down was basically long but pleasant... except for the accident on 301 and 255 in La Plata, MD that had all traffic southbound stopped. I drove around that and added another hour to my to my travel time. I stopped in Gloucester to get the lay of the land and talked to Sir Black Wolf. Just as I was leaving the lightning came thundering in and I raced the storm to Williamsburg, where I am staying. Had a great dinner and am now preparing to retire. It's gonna be a long day tomorrow. Huzzah!
Forecast for this weekend:
Saturday
Partly Cloudy
High:88
Low:64
Sunday
Partly Cloudy
High:85
Low:69
Just thought I'd let you all know.
Thanks
This was an absolutely delightful event. The Colonial buildings lent the feeling of another time, which was complemented by the entertainment, demonstrations and vendors. It was well planned and well executed... Huzzahs to Sir Black Wolf and his troupe.
Well said BubbleWright and I totally agree with you. Huzzah to Sir Black Wolf and his lovely lady for such an awesome event.
It's coming up in a few weeks? The hubby and I will be there, anyone else?
Bump! We're intending to go Saturday (tomorrow). I mean, c'mon, it's been two whole weeks since I've been at a faire and I'm in withdrawal. :D
Wish I would have seen this sooner! We were out there for a few hours today :) Always fun for a quick/fun ren-fix :)
BUMP! In less than 2 weeks, this one will be open!! Free ren entertainment!! Who is going? :-D
