Seen at the Faire

I was able to make a brief pilgrimage to Norman to visit the Medieval Faire and to hear these fine folks. And these ("We're going to play some bagpipe songs. And they're going to be loud.") And these rapscallions as well. Not to mention this death-defying trio.

Some other things I saw:

-- A lady on a motorized scooter who had it decked out as a horse in full skirted regalia, complete with stuffed horse's head (non-Godfather variety) in front of her steering controls.

-- Belly dancers who made me wonder if the belly ought to be dancing so readily when the dancer wasn't.

-- Men in tights who should definitely consider loosening up.

-- Little kids who don't care if they don't have rhythm yet as long as they have fun.

--  A local TV station's "storm chaser" truck and weather frou-frou display, because heaven knows we don't have enough reminders that we're entering storm season in Oklahoma and that if we watch some other channel we're all going to die.

-- A group of Chinese exchange students enjoying turkey legs and Scottish and Irish bagpipe music as the show was explained to them by their host/interpreter. Who was Hispanic (I love this country).
