(Belated) A Day at the Faire 2015

[cahwyguy]

This has been a busy busy weekend leading into a busy busy week, complicated by migraines and business travel. But I did go to the Southern California Ren Faire on Saturday, and a report is demanded:

• The best thing about this year’s RenFaire wasn’t the Faire itself, but the company: My cousin Cece joined us at the Faire. I haven’t spent a day with her in years, and it was just a lot of fun (especially seeing her joy while fencing).
• Amazingly, there were no major winners of the “What were they thinking?” costume contest. Either I’ve gotten used to the bad costumes, or perhaps people are learning.
• Due to the drought, Moonie could only use pretend fire. Understandable, but something is lost in the translation.
• They seem to have changed the layout once again. I like how the clothing was moved towards the front, but it seemed to be forever until one ran into food and all the stages. They are also rotating artists in and out.

Other than that, it was a normal Southern faire.
