Reasons Die

This video is beautiful. A bit bizarre at points. But it is unique and has a lovely song. It might not be something I'd have watched usually, I kind of ran into it by accident.

Just Visiting : Sterling Renaissance Festival

As we grow up sometimes we forget how wonderful playing pretend can be. We can at times believe that we are too old for such things. Thinking inaccurately, that only children are allowed to enjoy it. Thinking like that is wrong though. Not only do you miss out on a lot of enjoyable things, life can at times seem boring and bitter.

But not for us. Oh no, we enjoy looking for things that interest us, that let us explore. Explore what? Our own creativity, as well as the arts and talents of others. There are a lot of them that people don't think about or get a chance to experience in to-days modern speed crazy world.

Sterling Renaissance Festival

It's always fun to go to events in a group. This is no exception. The first time we attended was about 6 yearss ago, and it's been our goal to go for one weekend ever since. You get to see some amazing outfits/costumes at the festival. My friends always look amazing. But it's a chance to be creative and have fun, without having to wait for a special occasion.

This year we went for Ale Fest Weekend. Sterling themes their weekends to offer some direction and inspiration for those who attend. It's a way to create a level of expectation and excitement. We were very excited to be going, especially since there was a slight scare where the faire almost didn't open on schedule. Ale Fest Weekend was children light, a pleasant surprise for those who don't happen to be huge on being around huge groups of children.

There's different performances for those who attend to enjoy. One of our favorites wasn't there this year, but that's alright because there was still a lot of things to see. We enjoyed a number of other acts. Three specific ones that we attended were Zilch the Torysteller, Arthur Greenleaf Holmes, and Filthy Irish Stories with Uncle Churchyard. Needless to say, these are not really children friendly acts. But they're a lot of fun.

The Washer Wenches were also fun this year too. As always the audience ended up getting a little wet. But it's great fun for all involved, just like the rest of the faire. Am sorry that this post is later than I planned. But there's one last weekend of the faire this year. So if you get a chance, head over and enjoy the faire. There's just one weekend left this summer. Sorry that I was such a slow poke about telling you how much it was enjoyed.

Can't wait for next year!

Music Monday 19

Yeah I know that it's been a few weeks of down time when it comes to the music monday lists. My deepest apologies to those of you who are wondering why. It really comes down to a few factors. Reality, and the accessibility to the internet. By now you know I don't have a computer of my own at the moment. I also haven't been getting to the library very often. So sorry. But A dear friend of mine, Esme, has motivated me to try and get some of this back in order.

So Esme! This week is for you sweet pea ^_~

The Honeydrippers - Sea of Love
