Visiting the faeries
And now for something completely different.
Yesterday we drove east to beautiful Ouaquaga, New York, to the New York Faerie Festival.
Entering.
Sungiva brought her wings.
Watching Wolgemut.
Some folks got very into the music.
More than your average dance outfit.
You never knew what you might find.
Sword on, not in, the stone.
They had things for sale, too.
Fine knives in the making.
And, of course, you had to watch for trolls in the trees, fishing for children with lollipops. They lost a lot of bait that way.
Troll fishing.
Want more? I think you'll have to wait for next year, but in the meantime here are many more photographs to tide you over.
(It was very different from the Sterling Renaissance Festival. That was busier and more detailed, but the Faerie Festival was somehow a lot more relaxing. I think there's definitely room for both in the area.)
