This is my second renaissance fair to attend but this time we went decked out for the occasion. And oh what fun in the middle of nowhere near McDade, Texas.
We met Alice and her family there. We used to go rv'ing together and hadn't seen each other in six years. It was a good visit. It was pretty cool to have our own photographer along. Oh, I guess Leon took this one.
One of the highlights of the faire is the jousting. It is supposedly not theatrical but done for real.
There were many other activities taking place, food to be had, and people to watch.
The purpose of our visit was Sarah's wedding and what a lovely one it was. It took place at the stone of the seven sisters with a reception following. They arrived by horse drawn carriage.
Sarah and Brad donned their renaissance regalia during the reception. Don't they look fabulous?
Some of us however felt the need to me in period dress for the entire day!
And some of our best friends did not even recognize us!
This was a fun-filled, fantastic day and the perfect ending to our twelve days in Texas. We returned home in time for the World's Shortest St Patrick's Day Parade but after the 8 1/2 hour ride and the chilly weather we opted out. Bo Derek and John Corbett would have to carry on without us.
Many more pics are on Facebook so come on over and in the meanwhile we will be hanging out at the dead end of the street.
