I cannot believe how many birthday emails, calls, fb shouts and twits I got :) thank you all so much!!! Sean and Ares took me out to the renaissance festival in Holly Michigan. The Queen stopped and flirted with Sean, comparing him to the quite swarthy Henry the 8th, I inturrupted when she started to say how handsome he was, and that I thought maybe I wasn’t so happy with the Henry reference, she ordered Sean to stop with me. I thanked her very nicely. We saw honey bee gardens, crystals, potions, faeries, monks, wizards and raptors. We enjoyed watching the good knight beat the bad knight in the joust and just in general enjoyed the day..   Here are a few frames from the outing (Sean took many more which he might let us share someday!)
