Lotus Festival & Funco Faire

I guess everyone loves a good mystery, hence why so many people are interested in the identity of Sir Jack! I do believe we have another mystery on our hands as well.... Seems the lovely Lotus like to keep herself a mystery as well..... Can we tell who she "really" is from these pictures that she sent to me? You be the judge!

Her foot seems to have been
enjoying
the LeAnne Rimes concert.


And this must be a friend of her crab
his is Sumsum (according to the email)


Yes, this was classified information
If you saw the real email,

we would have to "kill" you. =oP

So, who is the "real" mystery? Sir Jack or Lotus...... I guess we will have to wait and see......I guess we really do need to have a Lotus Festival to find out for sure.....

====================================================
Funco Faire

Funco faire started about 8 years ago in the backyard of Queen Korbel and King "I didn't do it". At that time, there were no faires during the summer months and the Drunken Dragons were having "faire withdrawl". So they all got together and built the little "Shire of Barnwall". And every year we have a "private" faire known as FUNCO.

There is always lots to do at Funco, swimming in the dragon bog, drinking at the ale stand, watching a play on the stage, shopping the raffle or 50/50 shops, playing grape toss game or eating our favorite faire food like shepherd's pie.

As always, I have pics to help tell the story.....



Nothing says "party" like a good cake!


Yes, this is Funcoland
and ye be pirates about!

The beautious home of
Queen Korbel and King "I didn't do it"



This sign says it all.....
After all we be Drunken Dragons
"Are you worthy?"

And no Funco would be complete without
Beer, smokes and an insult!



This sign really should say...
Dragon
Stumbling


One of the many raffle prizes...
(I love this one ~ no, I didnt win it.)



Gotta have a dragon flying around


The blue shirts....( aka security)
part of the annual play



Me first mate, Hungwell was the big raffle winner...
he won a lot of stuff...
but this Dragon oath was his favorite!


Lady Eyes sporting her new
raffle hat!
She was the envy of the shire!


Lu concentrates on the grape toss...

And the ladies wait to have their cups
filled with grapes....



And the birthday girl gets one!


Then it is the men's turn...


Sifty has the moves...
but he still didnt catch the grape



HEY!! I declare shenanigans!
Those grapes still have the stems!!!



Oh yeah, Talon....
the innocent look doesn't work!


Faire always ends the same way....
with the Parade of the Dead....

After 6pm no cameras are allowed.... thats when the afterhours party starts..... thats all I have to say about that other than we always have a GREAT time!!!

The Drunken Dragons have a saying for those who can't attend our functions........

SUCKS TO BE YOU!!!!

Since you all have lived the dragon life thru this photo~journal...then you must be worthy!!!

I hope you have enjoyed it... I know we DO!!!!

I am off to bed.... and then to see a horse about a bank robber! *tee hee*

Enjoy your Monday......

I can't wait to hear all about it Minx! Sorry I couldn't stay up and party with you... work calls early here for me.

Our biggest cheerleader and supporter got to end the PE filming with a bang. I wouldn't want to see it end any other way.

Hugs,

Rachel

Oh Minxie, I'm glad you had such a fun time! No worries about telling him about me or my kid. I surely don't expect them to remember us! He meets more new people in a week than I do in five years, I'm guessing. The important part for me is the memories made, not that he remember us forever! :)
