Has anyone seen this horrible article?

Sounds like you have one amazing daughter Lala!! 

I'm pretty proud of her.

Bonny Pearl, my 5 y.o. son is the same way, if he even notices.  He's not bothered by the lack of clothing or the strangeness of some of it.  As someone else said, you'll see less clothing at the pool or Galveston beaches than at faire.  And to be honest, how many of those uptight people can say their children have never seen them partially or fully naked?  It's part of life and unavoidable.  The only thing that has ever shocked my niece, who is now 15 and grew up at faire, was her and her friend's first encounter with Miss Teri (I believe that's her name).  They had never encountered someone going thru a sex change, but after a little explanation from me and my hubby, they were fine with it.

Hey, at least they mentioned my muskets without prefacing it with "The terribly anachronistic paintball."

It's very simple, some people get it and some people do not.  The writer seamed to eat her way through the faire and is smiling in every picture.
In this information age, few people should be unprepared for what is at TRF.  It's a great family of cast and characters and in my opinion, society wannabes need to stay inside the 610 loop. 

Miss Teri still has my 10 year old confused a bit.

Miss Teri has a lot of 20-50 year olds confused a bit also...
But... She has a wonderful heart and that's all most rennies care about

*well, that and rum...*

Hear! Hear! Miss Teri is an absolutely wonderful person that loves our world even more than most of us. Just don't give her her bulldozer back dirty......

I assume that this journalist didn't stay for the fireworks, or I assume she would have thrown rocks at us too.

No... its to far to throw rocks across that puddle

*now an empty rum bottle would skip aways... there's a thought*

 The fireworks are awesome this year- as in the past! I am enjoying them so much and off with the head of anyone who throws stones at you!
Miss Terri is a great performer and a good person and a friend!
This article is just a lot of baloney, blather and balderdash!!

[Tipsy Gypsy]

Wouldn't it be refreshing to see an article in the mainstream media written by someone who actually knows something about the subject?

*sigh*

I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Teri a few years back and truer words could not be said about her.  I spent most of Sunday (11/2) just trying to keep up with her so I could introduce one of my employees to her!  She is just *way* to busy a lady to keep up with though!

Let me just say Bloody Amazing Fireworks display!!  Other faires may have firework displays at the end of their faire days but only TRF has FIREWORKS displays at the end of theirs.  We stayed both nights to see the displays and where totally blown away.  In my humble opinion - it is *the* perfect way to end a perfect day.  Kudos to all of the pyro techs as that is not an easy job to do.

With Respects,
