Back into the present time

Olde World Renaissance Faire http://www.owrenaissancefaire.com/ was this weekend. A fabulous weekend was had by all. The atmosphere of this faire is very friendly and laid back and family oriented. Entertainment was provided by a number of very talented people. I had an absolutely wonderful time. I would also like to thank those who helped out with my booth as I did not have any of my helpers. The wonderful owners of http://www.foxhollowrenaissance.com/ and their friends were invaluable to me, THANKS!!

Artists freely gave their knowledge w/o prejudice and a wonderful community existed.

Of course you can see by the pictures that it was a complete medieval experience with dragons, knights and noblemen present.

The dragonmaster & mistress may be contacted at primitiveorigins@frontiernet.net incredibly beautifully detailed dragons. I am proud to say that "Edgar" has allowed me to be his dragon keeper.

"Phoenix"
