HAPPY FATHER’S DAY

June 14th, 2008

This weekend (Father’s Day Weekend) is the last of this Faire season. Come out and experience it for yourself. The comments we’ve heard about our festival have been very positive. It actually is a village of very friendly people and quite unique buildings. It has been compared quite favorably to the corporate faire held in Irwindale. There is more activity and fun at our festival as opposed to a “medieval flavored marketplace,” which is how we’ve heard the corporate faire described. The town criers from that faire are now at Koroneburg, along with a number of vendors. Come and see us. Words cannot adequately describe our little village which has expended this year and will be growing even more before next year. It’s nice having a permanent site.

Fire Pictures

My husband went to show a friend the fire fighting pictures from our recent Pirate Faire, and they were gone. I didn’t think I had deleted that post, but they were gone. So, I’m putting some of them back up. As a lot of you know, 2 fires were started upwind of our village (with suspicious origins) when we opened our festival at the end of April.

Only 2 Weekends Left to Enjoy Our Village

June 4th, 2008

Hookah, Weebul and Salty Splinter Eye
Hookah, Weebul and Salty Splinter Eye in front of Fairapy. They are your “fairapists” and will help you feel better through dish smashing. Can you think of a better occupation for displaced pirates? Since the ship ran aground here in Koroneburg, the pirates have been waiting for the tide to come back in.

Last weekend, the weather was really nice – low 80’s. (same this coming weekend) The number of guests was not big, but the people who did come to visit us in our little village were fun. Everyone, villagers and visitors alike had a great time “playing faire”. We have only two weekends left – it is so beautiful out there, I wish it could go on longer. But, alas, Father’s Day weekend will be our last for this year. For more information on the site and what happens out there the rest of the year, check out: http://renaissanceinfo.com

Neighbor lady gets a ride back from the archery competition where she competes every week. The “smiths” have adopted her and take good care of her. Real name Nancy, our neighbor lady makes the finest wooden toys in the Village (and elsewhere). She is being transported by Robert and Damien from the blacksmith/sword booth.
