Closing weekend for faire was quite the fun time. Crazed, but fun. texas summer has finally come with 90+ degree weather. We had similar bright and cloudy wather as the week before, only less breezy. It got a little more humid with the threat of rain. It only made good that threat at the end of closing day and only around the faire site! It was a little odd with last day ending on memorial day for the first time. We had the typical visiting cast from several faires including Minnesota, Kansas City, Muskogee and I think even Colorado. Overall fewer guests bur more diversity. Despite three days of being pulled in different directions, I had lots of good chaotic fun and was sorry it was over. I managed a huge calvacade of images. A lot more than I expected.

The previous description and all these wonderful images are brought to you by Frank Hui. Because of his devotion, I have nothing to add. --Robyn Sotherby

Margaret misses that one but she'll get the next 2	One of the female jousters	Gearing up for this round	The knights accumulate points over 3 days
The bouts can get fierce	Those lances are solid. This one went flying right by us.	Also from Minnesota, Princess Katherine and Martin Frobisher	Making an appearance were the captivating Sirens' Song. They have a marvelous new CD.
They had some local accompaniment	This is Goethe & Gunther von Der Dudelschlaeger.	I don't know who is which but I had to get the flags too	One more. Ain't they a riot?
Queen's Gambit singing for the magistrate and my friend Rick	The Burly Minstrel singing with QAL	Later they perform an African lullaby with Leza, the Moor of Dundee	Delia singing "What'll I Do?" to me & Bill. We both had requested the song. Thanks to Clay for the shot.
