Faire Weather

This not actually a photo of the Oregon Renaissance Faire. (Unless Oregon knows something we don't.) That was back in June. But the same organization now owns and operates the Washington Midsummer Renaissance Faire, where this picture was taken. As with every year, I have to admire peoples' willingness to go in costume during the warmest month of the year. Not that Seattle-area summers are particularly hot or humid, but some of the outfits people put together are quite elaborate.

The faire is in a new location this year, much closer to the city proper. but somehow, even more dusty than the previous location. (Don't wear your good shoes.) This is the problem with faires that don't have permanent cites, there tends to be lots of bare dirt. Which means on the rare occasions it happens to rain on a faire day, lots of mud.
