Maryland Renaissance Festival

The Maryland Renaissance Festival...this place does not disappoint.  I love how people get into dressing up and all the fun activities!  Pretty much all food is served on a stick and there are all kinds of interesting performances, jousting, face painting, slides, etc.  A lot of interesting people come out of the woodwork, and it's always a good time!

Total Eclipse of the....

I know, I know- it wasn't a total eclipse here in DC but you can't deny you've had that song in your heart like I have!  The eclipse today was pretty cool!  We didn't have a complete eclipse here in DC, but everyone was out with their glasses checking out the once in a lifetime phenomenon!  I did not photograph the eclipse itself, but got some fun photos of people watching it!  I especially loved the shadows it created afterwards through the trees- super cool!
