Yesterday we spent a lovely day in the beautiful foothills of Sonora, CA relaxing at the Celtic Faire. The drive up was just gorgeous there's only a small window of time when the foothills are beautiful green before it quickly turns to golden brown! I could almost convince myself I was in Scotland or Ireland LOL
(I got a bit frustrated with the slide show I previously had posted and decided to go with static pictures to hopefully speed things up a bit.)

 The sign says it all! |  The Parade |  The walking of the Irish Wolfhounds! |
 Vikings and fairies abound! |  World’s Tallest Scotsman….I think that must be the world’s biggest flask too! |  They came from everywhere! |
 Discussions over the cannon! |  Let the Jousting Begin! |  Old meets New! |
 The Wicked Tinkers strike a pose! |  The Wicked Tinkers Tribal Band performing. |  The drummer stops for some wee libations! |
We enjoyed perusing the tents looking at all the art and trinkets for sale and then watched a healthy jousting match...it didn't matter that we sat on the wrong side we still rooted for our knight LOL After that on to a non healthy lunch of meat pies while we watched a funny comedy show. We topped off the day by watching the Wicked Tinker's Tribal band perform. You really can't help but want to dance when you watch them.
Here's a Youtube video I found of the Wicked Tinker's performing on the Craig Ferguson show
