I Survived the Ren Faire

We made it. Nobody died. Injuries were minimal. No animals were killed or maimed in the making of this faire. We had good audiences who actually laughed at our lame jokes and applauded the cool stuff. It only rained on the last day and stopped early enough for things to start drying out before we wrapped. We is tired...but already thinking about how to make next year better.

(that's me on the ground right)

There will be video at some point. I have some footage, but right now I'm so tired I can barely keep my eyes open at 15:15. I should be out picking berries, and I'm going down for a nap. Pathetic.
