7216 - Ren-fest 2005 pics

Beautiful day for the Ren-Fest yesterday. I got a lot of sun, fresh air, and I had a lovely time. Quiet waters park is especially lovely... lots of trees, lake front and cool breezes. I have a bit of a sun burn on my face and arms, despite my efforts to keep in the shade. I blame the bleacher area for the joust.. acted as a bit of a solar oven. I need to get one of those wide-brimmed Amish hats to keep the sun off.

Don't know why I'm up so early, but Newt is too.

( Pictures of Knights, Girls in bodices, and a juggler in swim-fins. )

After spending about five hours at the fest, it was time to move on. 2pm made the sun very strong indeed. Dan and I retired to our favorite watering hole for about three hours, and hung out for a bit in the shade. I had some pub food (grilled cheese and french fries)and a light beer, Dan had a gin and tonic, and stole some of my potatoes. We discussed why Dan hated Constantine as the worst comic-based movie since Spawn.

Still having sporadic power issues at the house... it's starting to peeve me more than a bit. I need to pick up a new battery backup and then those issues will be covered.
