The fair this weekend was a test of stamina. Stamina to cover many rapid fire acts and folk. Stamina to cover the food and drinks. But mostly stamina to endure the incredible humidity that followed the worse set of torrential rainstorms that hit the area all year. Lands and cities were flooded. Power was lost. Made Chessmatch a major challenge. And this year there were 2 different matches-1 each day.

Penelope Pettyjohn isn't down, just full of needles	Bill and Barry all ready for the holiday	As is Bill's little friend	New to the faire, The Duelists
They're a swordfighting comedy duo	A very manly duo at that		"Remember the hat"
They are showing all the steps that compose a good fight. Like engagement	Apparently size does matter	Hopefully no one empathizes here	I think this is what's classically known as a phallic symbol
He's cocked and ready	They do switch up weapons quite a bit	"Remember the hat"	Now we get some shakespearan pontificating
