Well, I found out all about this trip or yours to late to give you advice, and as you are waiting until you get a proposal and more, she has to give ya a ring... there is little this Pavee piper can avise you to take or leave behind, ol Shem. However, I do think if you find a sweetie to buy YOU a ring, you found the ol beor for a shem worth all the gelt her da askes for her. Good luck raising the bride price, and glad your back safe,
Larry

So what is this Ren Faire thingummy? Is it a one period historical re-enactment thing (sounds like Tudor with all the Marys and Elizabeths -- a pox on the pair of them because their Grandpa killed King Richard...)? A multi-period event, like Kirby Hall over here where you get to see Ancient Britons drinking with Romans, and Civil War (English Civil War that is) sharing a beer with the WWII crowd. Or is it more a music thing with a lot of re-enactors about and plenty of stalls where you can top up on your next season's kit and clothing? Divulge more....

They're generally multi-period, to an extent. They're Renaissance, but that tends to cover a fairly wide range of dates, and a lot of people dip into the medieval period as well. There's usually music, and crafts, and all kinds of other stuff. Very cool.

If anyone's interested in going to a renn faire, my Markland group, House von Draken, is hosting one at the North Wales Day celebration in North Wales, PA on May 20.

Leave me a personal message use this [Blue Clicky Thing] In the meantime, I'll flog the webmaster until he puts up directions.

Mbo - finish off that roll and give them the photographic proof. And BTW, a couple of those wenches WERE your age....

NCRF is set in a semi-fictional 1567, a border meeting between Queen Elizabeth I and Mary (Stuart), Queen of Scots.

Well, I wasn't around at the weekend to give the boy any advice (just as well!) but he seems to have survived! I'm sure the fresh air and human contact has done you good, lad, you're spending too many hours at your 'pewter! Plenty of time for that when you're a sad old fart like, well, me, really!

Well done, MMario! Way to show a lad a good time! I'm sure Mbo is a better person for it. If you should happen to come to the Maryland RenFest, let me know in advance and I'll try to link up with you. Better skip the wench walk though, my wife will be there. *BSEG*

Wish you guys would have taken me with you, I would like to try that sometime. On second thoughts maybe not; I would probably kick the bucket from the sheer ecstasy of it.. But what a way to go boys!! Aye. Dave

MMario - there's a very good chance the wife and i will be going that weekend. We're planning to get season tickets this year. If we don't find you out and about, you can probably find us (and many others) at the White Hart Tavern.

Just looked at your picture. I think I've seen you there. We usually try to catch the Pyrates and the Pub Sing. BTW, glad you were able to catch White's Ferry. It's been a favorite of mine since I was a little kid.
