The gatherings of all the people at my gazebo throughout the day and everything that comes with them such as good wishes, flowers, hugs and kisses.

Watching My Children.... My son discovering the world there without being strapped in a buggy... My daughter becoming her own person in her own way.....
Note to perspective parents: put them down. let them run. let them play in mud and with strangers.   watch them closely & keep them safe,  but do not hold them back.  because "if you never let anything happen to them, nothin will ever happen to them."

Getting to dress in REAL clothing and feeling normal instead of doing it on some goofy holiday when most everyone dresses up to NOT be normal.

Being able to turn off that internal censor that says "You can't say that!"

Ok I'll get in on this


I love the family that I have built over the years, the fact that no matter what every body is good for a hug or a happy word.

Also I am happy that my son is going to grow up with all of my family, he has more aunties and uncles than he knows what to do with!


I love you guys!

Youre welcome ladies, anything I can do to help.

And actually, I have met 3 women that I know of, who dont like men in kilts. They think its a skirt.

Just one thing?

Then it would have to be kilts-horses-people-in-funny-clothes-flirting-kilts-music-men-on-horses-pretty-dresses-tights-trees-artwork-memories.

Or umm....Yes.

Exactly. Hence why I wear a kilt. I wear shoes under mine, what else is there??

What I love at faire...being skinny for 2 days a week!   :P  I kid, I kid.

But really...the feeling that I'm some place where I don't have to worry about gas prices or global warming or the war or any of that...I can just be free for those few hours each week and just get away!  There's no better feeling.

The pagentry, the color, the garb (sometimes women in tights!) (sometimes women in kilts!) Improv, and innuendo, a look, the color of peoples eyes....really, the smiles, walking with a purpose and intent up and down the hills of CRF,  The cannon, the caralon bells, The music and voices that compliment eachother, The professor ( I always learn something from him each year), A slap across me face (Provocatively Planned, yet packed with a wallop.....Oh Mistress?.....SMACK!), The food, the ales, the surprises such as an onstage marriage proposal while singing a bit, quips and comments, freestyle play,  Enjoying a contest.....being in one or just watching, Knowing you'll probably see these characters/people again at another faire down the road, the diversity in people who work faire, ........ knowing you have touched someone in some way by the look in their eyes, and the smile on their faces.

Ok..... too many "just one things", to mention just one.

I love the incredible patience our patrons display. Sunday must have been "Chicken Madness" day because we sold more chicken in one hour than the last seven years combined!!

Naturally, we ran out of chicken for a short time- but the customers were awesome! They could see how busy we were and they waited without complaint. I think they actually like watching what we do and we have a captive audience.

It is great to be in a place where you can have fun in the midst of total chaos.

I love the jokes, and humor, and ability to laugh and blush.
Seeing how most people in real life can't make me blush, blushing seems new every year.
