have faith. we are at the whims of the weather, but that is one of the joys of faire, aye? we are a sandy forest with a sloping terrain...so even in the worst of rains, we do fine. don yourself with water repellant garb, grab a mundane friend and find your way to our magical forest this weekend.
sunday is suppose to be great weather. saturday will be us thanking the heavens for the rain our forest and woodland beasts need.
be of good cheer.
in medieval england, as is the case today, the rains did not dampen the spirit of the festive.

If the rain stops early Saturday like they are predicting, the rest of the weekend should be glorious.
No matter what the weather- Sherwood will be fun! I am working on spells and potions to get the rain out of there fast!
Photographers revel in rain and clouds ;D ;)
Stalk well...

Is Sunday still looking good? Clear skies? Winds mild? Temperature in the 60s?
Some family wants to make it Sunday and wondering.
RenGypsy, perhaps you need to hire me permanently for something... I could live there... I wish I could come back this year!!
Ren, If I could be there this weekend girl, I would and no matter what the weather I would make the 10 hour drive. But I'll be back in March!
..."girl?"... Ren...something you need to tell me? LOL! ;D
I find the cooler weather and all makes for more like the time we are trying to create. Afterall England is a North Atlantic Country. It just brings it all together I think.
well this Sunday's weather is looking pretty good so far. So unless I run into 'interesting times' between now and then, I'll be there Sunday morning ;D
Tap, tap, tap, foot tapping on the floor. >:(
Driving up today as soon as this rain stops so I can get the last things in my car for the trip. Hope my tent is still dry inside – won't know til I get there. ???
We will also be heading up tomorrow. Decided we didn't want to play in the rain today.

We drove down Friday night in the rain.. We managed to get there just a lull hit so luckily we got set up before the next round.
you people are beautiful. thank you for supporting sherwood even in the midst of cold and rain. we owe you our deepest respect.
this weekend's forecast is perfect.
plan on joining us and we will celebrate the fate's of wind and storm shining on us.
With the proper attire, I find any weather enjoyable! Just leave the velvet at home when it rains hehe! I had a blast running around in the rain this weekend actually!

Very true. I have never had a problem at faire in the rain. I just have to remember to not wear the chain mail to keep from rusting away. I would be stuck like the Tin-man in Oz. lol

I always like the rainy days, keeps the dirt dust down and the tourists away.
