Today was the first two of four performances of the 26th annual Boar's Head and Yule Log Festival at our church. More than 180 people in authentic Renaissance costumes take part in this performance, including two dogs and a live hawk. This is the Yule Log sprite. He rides the log, pulled by two Yule Log guards, ringing a brass bell to announce his arrival, until its placement at the front of the church. Payne is the left rear Yule Log guard. I took lots of pictures but most were blurry due to some strange setting I changed on the camera.
