King Richard's Faire


It's that time of year again! The air is crisp, the trees freckled with yellow and red- time to put our geek hats on and head down to Carver, Ma for King Richard's Faire!

This place is so much fun for those of us who can put away our pride and let ourselves get lost in childhood wonder. The costumes, the Olde English speak, the food, the forest- it's a playground for getting lost in your imagination. 
Our Knight won the joust!




I got a bulls eye! Really!



So yesterday I dragged my husband to Carver and we had a fun time watching the joust, watching a juggling act, doing archery, looking at costumes, and just walking around taking in the sites. It's easy even for the unwilling to get lost in the fun once you're there. I think it's important for everyone to embrace their inner child/geek once in a while. It reminds us that there's more to life than our careers/images/social circles. So go play!
