|
| Our very first Faire was the Northern California Renaissance Festival.
Garb was primitive but we were getting into the swing of things! |
A major event of any Faire is the Monarch's Progress. |
|
|
| Our lovely maiden daughter Andréa never misses a chance to cheer on the gallant
knights. |
By the time of the Playford Ball my garb was becoming considerably
more elaborate! |
|
|
| You never know who, or what, you are going to run into at a Faire! |
Entertainment abounds on many stages around the market place. |
|
|
| And they shall play on sackbut and psalterie? |
Ever under the gracious eye of her Majesty. |
|
|
| The mighty clash of arms resounds across the field. |
The white knight against the dark scoundrel. |
|
|
| Renée loves the archery! |
In the summer my garb gets a bit cooler. |
|
|
| Renée is extremely taken with that hat! |
Dragons, good men, and other fantastic creatures can be found at
Faires. |
|
|
| The Faerie Queen may burn her wings if she flies too close to that burning man. |
The street magician amazes the faire goers. |
|
|
| Andréa definitely has an eye for the handsome varlets! |
The nice thing about Faires is the chance to assume different identities. I thought this beard looked very Henry VIII.
| 
| | At the Playford Ball when the theme was "Riddles and Puzzles" I thought it was a good time to play Scaramouche.
| For Scottish Festivals, we don the Clan Hall tartan.
| 
| 
| | A peasant is a comfortable character to wear at summertime Faires.
| Tautus the Gryphon is my companion at many Faires.
| 
| 
| | The Green Man is of great interest to me so this Celtic garb is one of my favorites.
| And Gramercy to you for visiting my humble page, good Lords and
Ladies. See you at the Faire. |
