1 more question:  Anyone know the hours?  Poking around on the web-site doesn't seem to provide much information.

Blackbead

Ahoy, Cowgrrl!

My vendor agreement shows that we are to be set up between 10 AM and 10 PM on Saturday and 10 AM and 6 PM on Sunday.  Hope that helps!

Stopped over at the pirate festival for a few hours yesterday morning with Ottheinrich and Almare, and had a very nice time. It quaint but nice, as stopped and chatted with Blackbead (It was so wonderful to meet you) at his booth and ran into Ronald the Bald! Saw a few other regulars from Scarborough, including Cut,Thrust, and Run. All and all, it was a nice way to spend a Sunday morning. Give it a year or two, and this could grow into something impressive. Cause c'mon, who doesn't like pirates?  :P
Still Meggers, just a little more grown up now. :)


Almare

I agree with eloquent.  Awesome picture Ronald :)

Cowgrrl & I really wanted to go to this, mainly to see CT&R, but we had other things come up and it didn't work out  :(
Sounds like it was a good time.  Hopefully they'll have it again next year and we'll be able to go.

The schedule of events is a little confusing on their website.

What are the hours?
What can we expect to see on Saturday?

Greetings, felicitations, and buenos dias, Mi Senora Dona Catalina!

The FA@ page shows that the faire will be open from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM on Saturday and 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM on Sunday - see http://www.piratedays.org/1.3.html.  As far as the schedule, there are activities that run all during that time to include music, vendors, and reenactors.  I don't have a better schedule and I don't think they've put out anything . . . do you think that's a ploy to get you there all day??

Hmmm...this bears looking into for 2010!  And it's practically in my back yard!  How is it that I haven't heard about it before now, I wonder....
