With a touch of imagination, folks attending last weekends Mancos Renaissance Faire fell into character, and relived a time of roving minstrels, gypsy magic, fair maidens and noble swordsmen. Merry amounts of food, drink, music and game were the mainstay at the festival, with a jolly good time had by all. Heres a look:

A band of gypsies serenade the crowd with tradtional music. Kai Morris got a little too close to the Mud Pit during a brawl. A small arms battle ensues during the Faire. The Pit claims another victim. A swordsmens blade meets his opponent.
