If I could just ad two pence worth from me peanuts gallery,
This particular faire is in rolling hills where granite rocks and a creek bed terrain covered in huge oak trees and pepper trees. Some cactus and all green (from our way over abundant winter of record water fall) meadows and dry beds, but though mostly in a valley where without a breeze it can get very hot it was more than perfect with a cool breeze all afternoon and chilly nights where every star came out to say hi and share in passions play. As for the faire it had to have been a record patron attendance as the battles crowds were heard for miles not to mention parking was closed before 1:30 p.m. People were parking on streets and walking a mile to get in. Vendors were exhausted sitting in empty booths (tents) actually sold out! The faire actually ran out of beer! It was HUGE and perfect. Thanks to Christine for making the connection to CaptPhil for a coast to coast first from faire, Bloody Mary Bonney for dancing the legs off all the belly dancers. Rhumba Rue for a gracious hospitality and most of all my Buttercup for seeing a reason for loving me.
