Alisha at the Renaissance Festival

On Saturday Hector and Reagan came over in the morning to head out to IHOP for breakfast before heading out to the Georgia Renaissance Festivaldown by Hershey’s house.  After grabbing a nice breakfast at IHOP (yes we ate healthy) we headed out towards Peachtree City for the festival.  As we got closer traffic was REDICULOUS!  I noticed that the traffic seemed to not make much sense so I went with my own senses and hopped back into the moving traffic and took it all the way up to the exit.  It turns out a few morons thought that they needed to be on the right side of some barrels blocking off a lane and it was backing traffic up for miles on 85.  I just exited the highway the way you were supposed to and avoided it all.  I was livid when I saw that all of that time could have been saved if 1 donut eating cop would get his / her ass up and direct the traffic the way that it was supposed to go. 

After getting off the exit, traffic was still really bad in the right lane so I decided to take the left lane as far as I possibly could before getting back into the right lane.  These two maneuvers literally saved about an hour and a half to two hours of traffic.  It was insane!!

Once we got to the festival we headed in and went  straight to a Pet adoption area that they had set up.  Reagan happened to fall in love with a dog and within 20 minutes they had a new family member LOL.  They told us to walk around and do our thing and to stop by there on the way out and they would give us the dog to take home.

The festival itself is….well…..interesting.  There is a game called World of Warcraft where people waste their lives playing an online game in a world of trolls and crap – this is the real life version of that game.  The visitors all dress up like freaks with crazy costumes and parade around with fake accents like they live in the times.  It was quite odd.

We spent about 5 hours there and had a good time before picking up Hector and Reagan’s dog and headed back home.  Once we got to the house Hector and Reagan headed home and we headed up to Alisha’s dad’s house for dinner and meet their new family member – a mutt blood hound.  We had a nice dinner and chilled out by their fire pit and headed to that house. 

I spoke to Spencer on the way home and we was thinking of heading to Taco Mac.  Alisha did not want to come along so she asked that I drop her off and then go afterwards.  I did and met Spence there for about 2 hours and headed back to the house. 

It was a nice and busy day.  We had a good time for sure.
