My latest Transformers crossover set arrived today. This is a crossover between G.I. Joe and Transformers. This set has Sgt. Slaughter and Leatherneck as the G.I. Joe characters and the vehicle was one that Sgt. Slaughter had on the show. They did a really nice job of taking that vehicle and making it into the character of Kup. I do like when they cross characters between those two series.

This was the first year in forever that we were not attending King Richard’s Faire. We didn’t get free tickets this year and we got a bit priced out of the event. Eva offered the suggestion of going to the Connecticut Renaissance Faire instead. The prices were better and the drive was about the same. So we got tickets and went down to see what it was all about.
It was a nice Ren Faire and Eva had a great time dressed as a pirate. I put my horns on over my hat but that was the extent of me getting dressed up. I kept forgetting they were there and took off my hat only to have them fall off over and over. There were some performers and we watched a couple of shows that were enjoyable. They do not have a big production like KRF does but that is okay. We were keeping everything low key today.
When we left I charted our course over to Shady Glen, a restaurant I heard about on Tik Tok. They do something really unique with the cheeseburgers. The burgers have these sort of Cheese Wings on them that are fried so they are a little crispy. I had wanted to try them and was very excited for them but they were just okay. At least we did not make a special two hour trip just for the burgers.
We did not try their ice cream, though, maybe another time.
