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 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
