We're in the off-season now as far as the actual
performance company is concerned.
For those of you who are not familiar with
our saga, in
2003, Scott and I lost what was left our minds and decided
to become
cast
members
at
Scarborough Faire. We traded
the comfy,
cool shorts and t-shirts from our previous eight years
as patrons for layers of brocade and velvet. We dedicated
16
full weekends
to rehersals and faire days. I learned how to use a sewing
maching and sew and made my first Renaissance Court
Dress which I started
making
Christmas 2002. From that date until June 1st. Scott had
no
life and I had
less of one.
We now seem to live in some odd state with
the first 5 months of our year dedicated to Scaroborough
Faire and the later 7 months recovering from exhaustion.
It is loads of fun though, and we have really enjoyed being
a member of SAPA and the friends we have made.
