It was opening weekend for the 2008 season Scarborough Faire. No snow this year. Part of me was a bit sad about that. The sight of such anomalies are always very welcoming. Anyway the weekend was actually near ideal in temperament. There were a few new things and as always I ran into old acquaintences and met new people. Took much higher number of pics than normal for the time of the run. I was running that strong on enthusiasm. To the point of exhaustion as I discovered by Sunday's end. Luckily that's 1 of the few perks of using a digital. It was still going.

The latest in taking down supernatural prey	You can find this fellow in Hollyfield	Any guesses what he's hawking	Came across this fine lady
Lovely details	On the streets you can find brawls involving the men of Nature of Mercy	Is it right for them to involve young children?	The tykes don't seem to have any problems with it
A special lesson in honor and compassion	Nice to have one's own familiar	Some trolling vistors	Good to be the king
Amazing how drawn the little ones are	Ercole de Este II	Heir to the Duchy of Ferraro
