This weekend we were hosted by the ever gracious Sturgills as we hunted antiques and enjoyed a Renaissance fair experience. Saturday, Derrick, Melissa, Nikki, Aila, Robert, Serenity, Braidyn, and I drove south to antique shops in Lafayette and Yamhill where we got amazing deals on antiques, toys, and militaria. Aila got a great deal on a new china cabinet, I loaded up on antique woodworking tools, and Derrick found an original ANZAK hat for only $16! Afterwards, we returned to Sturgill manor where Heather and her mom had worked to prepare an excellent company dinner and Derrick and I manned the grills. There we were joined by Captain Brown and his better half, Amber, for a fun evening of food, campfire, and occasional nerf marksmanship. Capt. Brown was quite impressive speeding around in William's power wheels jeep. On Sunday, we all enjoyed a day at the Renaissance fair where we joined by Ms. Patty and Harliegh and enjoyed the entertainment and games such as archery, knife throwing, axe throwing, darts, and ninja star throwing. We missed all who were unable to attend and hope to see you for our next off-season gathering. | |

I am happy to see that you were able to enjoy the Renaissance fair. Well, it was a special day that’s why it was just right that you went there with people who are special to you. If you are the type of person who is into shooting, the fair was especially made for you. I am hoping that you did not miss it because it was something that I want you guys to do. I want everyone to excel on stuff they are really good at. Don’t you think that’s a good idea?

Wow, it sounds like you had an absolutely amazing weekend filled with adventure and treasures! I'm so jealous of the antique finds you scored, especially that original ANZAK hat for just $16 – what a steal! And the Renaissance fair experience sounds like a blast, with all the archery, knife throwing, and ninja star action.

Sharpshooter weekend of treasures and fun are the best activities and such events are good and provide healthy activities. I saw people take more interests in it and can go to the places where they can find such games.
