Tribute to Honor Memorial Day

My daughter Lucy made these collages with her photo program-using the stones from a new Veterans Memorial in our town that has Veterans names from wars dating back to the Civil War.








This was a very good friend of Lucy and her husbands.  "Z" was a Marine with my son-in-law and was killed a few months ago in Afghanistan in the War against Terrorism.

        She did an awesome job on these-sent them to the families and posted them on her facebook and mine.

                     Hope everyone had a nice weekend and remembered to Remember!!

Medieval Faire-Fort Myers,Fla-where winter is summer........

This post is dedicated to my new blogging friend Mimi-a pirate and my old friends-two pirates in Fla-Mike and Lisa!  Mike makes all his outfits and most of Lisa's!  They travel around Fla-and someday hope to move to N.C. to various Medieval events-it's great fun!!

Lisa and Mike




This little girl will remember this gallant knight for a long time!!

The delightful bobbles for display and sale are so colorful!
Playing life-size chess for the King & Queen

The storytellers are wonderful and very entertaining!  And a little naughty-as evidently washer wenches can be!!!!

This is the armor the knights wear-it's very interesting!!

Horses are magnificent!
They could split an apple on a post riding at breakneck speed!


The Knights costumes are very authentic!

Someone has to lose?!
Their outfits are incredible-the photo doesn't do them justice-hand carved in leather~really intricate!
Looney Lucy is a lovely musician and great story teller!

Another of the two washer wenches had the crowd roaring with their tales!!

Flower bouquets and halos with flowers and streaming ribbons for the ladies and little girls were a hit!


Life has to be full of characters!!  I love it!!
