The third season of St. Louis is now over... and what a run it was. The newish faire is growing and attendence records are reflecting that growth. In talking with many travellers from other faires, the operative word for the St. Louis faire is "potential." We recognized this potential three years ago, and have been back every year since. With this installment of Robyn's Roost faire images, I spent more time taking pictures of friends and familiar acts. One of those acts is the highly motivated and dear friends of the Caravan Gypsies. Another group of images highlights Rickles, the Pickle Fool partaking in a scenario skit with Captain Caspian Jack Oceaneous and King Francois' Chief Justice. Of course, other familiar faces include friends from a number of states enjoying the revels of the faire. Then there's Gabriel, my partner in cr... er... journies, whom we had arrested. His terms of release were to wag his bum and profess his undying love for the Chief Justice's cousin, Mirabella. Yeah, we're cruel friends to each other, but friends nonetheless.

Opening Scenario. Captain Cartier returns from the New World	With Iron Pyrite and Quartz (oops)	(Some) blood-thirsty pirates snag the booty	Enter his majesty to discover what's going on
And the faire commences	Caravan Gyspy variety show	Talking tomatoes	Hags that turn into...
Lasses with heavenly voices	The potion of wonder works again	It's quite tasty too	Diego and the cape dance
Gypsy sisters Delilah and Diego dancing	Fighting to the death	But, no one said who's death	Crowd by the tilt yard and food booth
