vakkotaur: (faire)


[livejournal.com profile] jmaynard pretty much summed up IRF: It was meeting with friends who happened to be at a faire rather than going to see a faire. I got to meet a couple ponies I hadn't met before, as well as a miniature horse who seems to have gotten quite used to people (he wasn't that used to people this Spring, I was told).

We didn't go out to supper with anyone from faire, which was a bit unusual. On the other hand, there supposedly was some gathering scheduled to start at 8:00 PM Saturday that was "only about 10 minutes away." Even with a long wait for a table, Jay and I were finished with our meal by 8:00 PM. And the next day we heard someone say that "10 minutes away" was more like 40.

The first year Jay and I went to IRF we went for just one day, returned on Sunday, and did MNRF on Monday. Something like that might happen next year. Neither of us really sees a reason to spend two days at IRF. One day seems sufficient to see all we care to see and then some. Whether we do MNRF that weekend is open. It might be good to have a full day of not doing much of anything.

We stopped at a comic shop in Mason City so I could pick up a copy of Looney Tunes 118. This issue is all Duck Dodgers and all written by Earl Kress, one of the few folks I don't mind writing everything in an issue. The interesting thing is that the stories don't strictly follow the Classic Era and previous comics line. Instead, they use some elements of the Duck Dodgers television cartoon. I need to find out more and maybe start taping that show. I'd also like to ask Tom Minton a few things about the show and the comic - I figure there can hardly be a more authoritative source than the producer-director... who also writes for the show.
