After having to miss seeing a lot of friends opening weekend due to work, I was happy to get out to Sherwood Forest last Saturday! I was even more happy to spend the day with Molly, one of my closest friends from high school days, who I've always been in touch with but had not seen in person for about 20 years.


Here's Molly and I outside the new Sherwood Keep.


Better view of the keep, this is actually the office/retreat of the faire's owner.



a little morning fairy frolic...

Here's a brand new pub, the Three Stags, yes there is a tree growing through it.



The new pub is a great place to make new friends!
