 It's
impossible to completely communicate how much I've received from the
good people at these faires and shows. Of course there is entertainment,
food, learning, beautiful women and good clean fun. But there is more, a
certain sense of magic, of pride in their creation, of the celebration
of the joy and happiness of just being alive. You can get as little or
as much as you want from a faire - the participants are willing to give
virtually anything you desire.
I would like to big a big hearty thanks to everyone at all of the
faires for their kind words and for posing for many of these pictures.
It's the people of the faire that make it fun and enjoyable. I've made
many friends at faire, and again I thank you for the encouragement, the
hugs from the ladies ;-), and most of all for the many years of
enjoyment.
I would like to recommend you check out the
Belles of
Bedlam. They are a group of fun and lovely wenches (and a few guys),
playing at many of the local faires in Southern California. They are, in
my mind, one of the most enjoyable acts in the faire and I always make
it a point to see their show. They don't know it, but their humor, high
quality and kindness helped me through a rough time after
my wife
passed away in early 2005. |
