Faire Memory

[grnvixen]

Had a flashback to an earlier time when we arrived at faire on sunday. Due to 'Das Boot' we have been driving me on site to T'gers where I spend the day working (if you can call it that, and he pays me, bless him!). Anyway, this sunday, being the second weekend, there was no where near the number of cars around as there was the first weekend and once we had passed the much-larger-than-it-needs to be forklift delivering the skids of drinks to the food booths, the lanes were empty! It reminded me of my favorite time at faire, years ago when I used to have a shop in the same spot T'gers now stands. We would come out on weekends during the summer to build or repair/remodel the shop, and few if any people would be around. No concert at Sandstone, just all the other period looking shops closed up and quiet, sun coming through the canopy of leaves. We crashed in the booth a couple of times as well over the years and early mornings were another favorite time, as other shop owners awoke or arrived it truly seemed like a village waking up. Then the cannon would go off and the hoardes of patrons stream through the gate :) :) :).
