Hey guys, Mistress Savannah is back from Fetish Fair 2008. In case you are wondering what’s up with the whole Mistress deal I will make sure to explain in the blog….

So Sunday was Fetish Fair 2008. I met up with a friend and fellow author Kaenar Langford and her friend Kate at the subway station.  We headed over to meet up with a few friends of Kaenars from the famous Spa Excess. I got to meet Jean, Robert, Mickey and later on Michael. We decided to head over for some lunch at a place called O’grady’s.

The fair was just getting started and the people were in full swing. The weather was perfect and everyone looked like they were having a great time. All the attendees came decked out in their fetish wear..Tons of leather….

At the place we were having lunch we were served by a waiter decked out in a baby hat, bib, pacifier and all the other baby gear…After having a bite to eat all of us decided to check out all the different booths and events going on. The first booth was with the sex chair. They said they reinvented the Kama sutra with this chair. The thing did look interesting and one would wonder about all the fun that could be had on it…

As we went further we ended up in the park there was a pup play party called Fetch. It was all about unleashing your inner canine.

After the park we made our way down the rest of the street checking out the booths and all the different people who came to celebrate. People were not shy at all. Naked was on the menu and naked was the theme of the day….It was interesting to see the different fetishes that people had. There was leather, pleather, furries, canine play and so much more. People exposed themselves in their own unique ways. I loved it all.

After walking around for a bit we headed to a bar called Pegasus for some drinks and chatted for a bit. It was pretty hot out and too much sun wasn’t a good thing. On our way to the bar I ran into one of the volunteers who was collecting money for the AIDS foundation and as a thank you I got named. So this is where my Mistress tittle came from. He picked out the Hello my name is Mistress sticker and gave it to me.

Don’t you just love it?? I was so amazed at how friendly the people were there. When we went back to the street we ran into this couple who was glad to pose for a photo.

I must say I love those boots but man I would be scared to fall in them. After coming back out we checked out the rest of the tents. There was everything from naked twister to booths, jewelry, sex toys…I loved the table with the floggers and collars. They had some hot spiked collars and leashes. They were expensive but still hot….

These three guys decided to give a pose for a photo. Their outfits were the popular choice of the day. Lots and lots of chains and leather.

By late afternoon we decided to go visit a bar called Zippers. Jean had mentioned that it had a cool pation pool. Yes it did. There was a pool area with lounge chairs that you could sit in and cool off.

By dinner time we headed to a place called Olympic Pizza and grabbed something to munch on.We had walked around a bit and we were beat. The day was interesting and you learned a lot about the fetishes that people have…

So my question to you is..What is your fetish? What gets you all hot?

Me…hmm…I really don’t think I have one…

Oh how good it is to be back home. After being gone seven days I’m home. The time away went by so fast but I’m glad to be back at home. To be able to sit at my desk and to be able to do my work. I have come back to 21,098 email. Yes you are reading that correct. One week away and that’s how many emails have accumulated in my inbox.

So the week up north was fabulous. I got to go fishing with my father every morning while everybody slept. We had perfect weather the whole week there. The only bad day was Friday evening. It got cloudy and started to rain. By the middle of the night it was coming down like someone had opened a faucet and turned on the water. The thunder and lighting came strong while we were tucked away in our trailer.

While there we found some mushrooms in the forest, yes edible ones. My father caught his first walleye fish while he was there. We pretty much had fresh fish daily and it was a pike or catfish or bass.

We also had quite an adventure with a gigantic snapping turtle. It all started with when the turtle ate 2 of the 3 fish we had in the water. He ate 2 catfish and left the bass. About Saturday he started showing up more and more often while everybody was fishing. He even got caught on the hook a few times. Once he even made it up to the trailer when he got caught by a friend of ours. The big guy got out of the fish net and started running for the hill. It was crazy. He was jumping at everyone and clawing. We had to bring him up so we could get the hook out of this mouth. He had a huge tail that looked like an alligator tail.

One of our friends rented a boat for three days and my father and him went fishing while i just took in the scenery. As you can see from my pictures the view was amazing. So many different animals all around. We even made it to a waterfall and I tried to take a photo but it was a bit too dark.

I forgot to mention, when we arrived my mother had a bag of nuts that she left in front of the trailer next to the entrance. Well we heard some rustling and when we looked out we had our resident chipmunk come and start a fiesta…LOL…We brought the nuts for the little guy but he got started on his own. He ripped open the plastic bag and started stuffing his face. He would run and hide the load and come back for more. He wasn’t even afraid of us being around. At one time he was only a few centimeters away form my moms feet stuffing his mouth with nuts.

 Friday night before we left we had a fireworks show that was put on by a friend of ours. He wanted to make it more memorable for his kids and do one more blast off.

We left around eleven am today and might I say we had some crazy weather. The temperature would jump from 28C to 19 in a matter of a minute. It got so dark and the clouds looked like they would be turning into a tornado. At some points the rain was coming down so hard that the windshield wipers on the car were not able to keep up and the highway was flooded. People had to turn on their emergency lights and drive so slowly because you had no visibility at all. The sewers on the highway could not keep up with collecting the water at the rate that the rain was falling. We even had hail and it was so hard that I saw a few dents in the car. I’m glad we made it back safe and sound.

It was a truly amazing week and I loved it. I finished pretty much the first round of edits on my book Love In The Fastlane and write 1/4 of my book Night’s Embrace. I also got 4000 words done of Unwrap Me. I wish I had gotten more work done but what the heck, I still had a productive week while trying to relax.

 So now it’s back to those emails. I just went through 1000 and when I clicked the next set the 1000 came back. So I’m still sitting at over 21,000 emails and it will most likely take me a few more hours to catch up on everything that I have missed while I was away.
