I would also love to see that wig.   

Bonus: it would make you easy to find so that I can introduce myself!

The point is to have fun and enjoy the day. If someone has a problem with you doing that then they are the ones who should fear the Scarby Gods..

Not to mention that no matter how outrageously you are dressed at faire, chances are there will be someone (or many ones) looking equally if not more outrageous.

:)

(some of the people in various parts of Big Furry Costumes come to mind.  And people dressed as demons.)

That's so true... Imagine my surprise to see Predator at Scarby this past weekend.

Right?!

Also, these "Scarby Gods" manifest themselves in the form of other patrons/playtrons.  I've never gotten side-eyed by anyone who was directly involved in the faire, but I have seen/overheard/experienced snarky comments from people who weren't working there.

As a playtron or patron,  you are not bound by convention as to what you wear through the gates, as long as it is not illegal or overly offensive.  Offensive is subjective of course, as to what the OWNERS feel is offensive.  I might be offended by a person wearing a purple dinosaur suit... they might not be.  Are the parts covered?  Check.  It is somewhat in good taste?  Check.  Is it dangerous?  Check. 

Whether it's accurate to period, not much can be done about that.  It's period to the 1700s, not the 1500s, but hey, it's your costume and you have to wear it.  Go for it!

Woohoo!

Also, it's early yet, but it looks like it might be a bit cooler this coming weekend.  Huzzah!

Thank the gods!  I was not enjoying Sunday by 4ish (maybe I was doing too much walking), it got better as the sun headed more towards the horizon though!

sad part is, I believe it was only high 70's...  not quite sure how I'm going to be able to last on Memorial day weekend!

Saturday Sunny, with a high near 67.
Saturday Night Partly cloudy, with a low around 47.
Sunday Mostly sunny, with a high near 72.

That's the NWS weather forecast for the 20th and 21st. We are heading down for Saturday, just gotta get thru the week.

I know . . . oh, how I know.  I was trying hard not to complain about the heat yesterday because I know it will be getting worse.
