Heath and I traveled to the Great Lakes Medieval Faire this weekend to partake in some 13th century distractions. There were jousts, falconry and dirty limericks a plenty. Unfortunately, this year there was no abundance of Mead or other adult beverages - the city council gave the event coordinators too much hassle to allow alcohol to be sold. All other aspects of the Faire were nice - the atmosphere was congenial and there was quite the selection of performances, exhibits and vendors. For being a small RenFaire, they do a credible job and it's well worth the $20.00 entry fee for several hours of entertainment. I, of course, dress the part while Heath... umm, he wore a fancy hat; I just can't seem to get him into those fancy pants and floppy shirts. :-D
I must commend Dennis over at Dragon Leatherworks for his addition to our outfits. His pistol pouches blended in perfectly - keeping us safe, unencumbered and in character. I'd recommend it to anyone who plans on carrying while becoming a lord, lady, fop or wench for a day.

You know...you gotta get Heath in one of those *Robin Hood - Men in Tights* outfits. Take pictures of him skipping merrily and verrily, or some such...
Pure Internet Gold... ;-)
And thanks much for the link! I'm going to *SO* filch the picture for my sales site....if you don't mind, that is?
I've got to recommend against that, Dragon.
I don't see a holster in that picture...
;)
And yes, you do need to get Heath in a medieval costume...
Dennis,
You're welcome to use the picture on your site :-)
Hrm, might be able to get him to wear one of the Scottish outfits - but I think you're SOL on tights.
Heath in a Kilt? Yikes!
I need to get one of those for when I go to SCA events.
Great picture! What pistol were you carrying?
The pouch is for the Walther PPK. I guess I should have done a picture with the flap up - didn't think about it.
