I just got back from a day trip to the Texas Renaissance Festival. I miss that faire. It's my last “home” faire since Excalibur Fantasy Faire went kaput a couple years ago. The faire was packed too. The decrease in attendance from last year was no where to be seen this year–thirty thousand people. I brought out my autoharp and played a wee bit in the lanes. But aside from being a crappy busker, it was tough to be heard. But I had a few gem moments playing for individuals and of course seeing many friends. Though there are a ton that I missed too, including all the Browncoats who met there today.
And next weekend, we begin our six week run at the Louisiana Renaissance Festival. I can't to get back there. That's another wonderful faire with absolutely brilliant people! Yay!
