A few weeks ago we got to go experience the Texas Renaissance Festival, which is held every weekend in October and November near where we live. A lot of people dress up when they go, and we saw everything from Lord of the Rings to Star Trek, and some in between that I would have rather not seen. There were shops selling clothes, jewelry, handmade instruments, etc. We heard music, saw people throwing knives and shooting arrows. Mostly, there was some good people-watching going on. Even better than the state fair. Too bad I didn't get pictures of some of the wild costumes we saw. It was crazy, but fun.
We watched a juggling act which was pretty cool except for all the inappropriate humor from one of the men who performed. Yeah, not exactly a family show, even though there were young kids in the audience. It doesn't show it in this picture, but the guy was balancing on a ball while he juggled.

We ate frog legs. They were ok. Jacob said he's had some that were better. But I was starving, so I ate them. They tasted like a mix between chicken and fish. 
Who wants to go with me next year?

I want to go...all except for the frog legs...you couldn't get me to eat those!
As long as I've lived here, I've never gone! Glad you had fun.
You guys are always up to something fun and experimental. That is the great thing about you guys. You never sit to for too long before your off to a new adventure. I wish I could have a little more of that in me. What a fun way to live. I'm glad Texas is treating you well.
