Last fall I gave my faithful Blog readers the Women of OVPR – well a few of them anyway. So this Spring I figured to even the score & give ya all some pics of the men.
The smiling man on the far right is the potter whose wares are on display. I’ve got a couple of his pieces at my house. The other shiftless fellows around him are just typical ner-do-wells.
Two more hard working gents – Tom the Traders on the left & a yoke maker on the right
Another traveling trader who frequent these doings. He also sells shooting supplies, some tinware & the like
Hootie & his lady – Hootie is a bit of a rogue & runs the local Barking Spider Tavern
Another trader enjoying a fine March day in the sun
This fine lad from Williamsburg has knives, shooting bags & firelocks for sale. No he’s not cooking, just warming his trotters.
A landlubber & a seaman on the left, a Virginia colonist & western fur trapper on the right.
Of course it wouldn’t be a Vous without music. This guitar player is making great music on his new guitar.
Dulcimer Dave & the Preacher with the Young Sonner
Here we have some refugees playing alone with Dave et al
All in all a good time was had by all & sundry. It did get a bit cold Saturday evening. Gypsy Jane & I had loaded the Ford mule already & slept at her daughter’s place near Richmond Saturday night, so we missed packing up wet canvas in a light dusting of snow.
