Catching up

It's not fair to have snapshots of Fantasy Fest and not post them, so here are the four of us decked out for the Masquerade March.

The year's theme was "Gnomes, Toads and White Rabbit Tea Parties," which Robert took seriously, going as a gnome with frogs all over his drawers. (If you're planning early for '08, the theme will be "Pirates, Pundits and Political Party Animals," given the election -- though this year's parade already had a rolling mensroom cubicle.)

Ben wore a many-colored coat. I used the big coq-feather mask for the first time, since I don't need glasses anymore (the bikini top and coin belt were leftovers from previous years; theme schmeme). And Ken found a gnome suit on markdown somewhere on the mainland.

Good time had by all.
