  • Why I’m Not Probably Not Going to the Renaissance Festival This Year

    February 4, 2026 /

    Hi everyone! It’s that time of the year when I used to go to the Arizona Renaissance Festival. I used to really enjoy going and would have a fun time eating, watching the shows, and photographing what I saw there. During these years, things changed in my life and I began to favor other priorities. Some of them include my health, work, taking care of my relatives, and more. I already was prioritizing them, but I was still able to attend the fair at the same time. I was also able to attend pop culture conventions as well. Ever since 2016, things in my life have really began to shift.…

  • 2023 Arizona Renaissance Festival- Plans for Attending and No Costume Plans

    February 3, 2023 /

    Hi everyone! This weekend will be the first weekend the Arizona Renaissance Festival will be open. It is usually open for two months, so there are plenty of opportunities to attend. For many years, I would attend at least one day per year. This year, I don’t know if I will attend. Also, if I do go, I don’t plan on dressing up. There are more than one reasons why I decided on potentially not going or if I do, I won’t wear a costume. The main one is that there are many things going on in the area where I live in February and potentially March. I don’t know…

  • Walk Around Main Street in Florence, Arizona- February 17, 2018- North Main Street Part 3

    March 25, 2020 /

    Well, this is the last post with all the photographs I took of Florence, Arizona on February 17, 2018! I’m so happy these posts are done because they have weighed on my mind and emotions for some time. I’ll go into that at the end of this post. But for now, here are the rest of the photographs of Main Street!

    I’m almost done with my posts of the Main Street area in Florence, Arizona! Although I have one more post after this one, I’m so happy to finish this series. Trying to remember everything I did on that day two years ago is frustrating. It wasn’t a very exciting day (The street was pretty dead because it was a Sunday) and all I really did was take photographs and go home. Anyway, onto part 2 of the photographs I took of North Main Street! All the photographs in this post are around the street corners of 6th Street and Main and Ruggles Street and Main.

    After all these posts, I’m still not done posting the photographs I took of Florence, Arizona on February 17, 2018. I am on the last three posts though, which makes me happy because, even though I am happy with the way these photographs turned out, there are quite a lot of them. Add to it the description writing of each location in the photograph and it takes quite a long time to finish each post! So, knowing there are only three posts left makes me happy. Anyway, onto the photographs!

    Hi everyone! On February 8, 2018, I went to the Casa Grande Ruins to take photos, video, and just to spend the day somewhere I don’t normally go to on a regular basis. The Casa Grande Ruins National Monument is of Native American adobe ruins. One of these ruins is a three story tall adobe building. You can read more about the Casa Grande Ruins here. I’ve been to the ruins before, but it was many years ago. I’m very happy I did because on the day I went to the ruins because I got to see a nesting great horned owl in the ruins! In addition to taking photos,…
