Fun at the Waltham, Massachusetts "Watch City Steampunk Festival"

Yesterday I was a vendor at the Waltham, Massachusetts "Watch City Festival," an outdoors steampunk fair that included craft and vintage vendors, entertainers, musicians, and a costume parade!  I met a lot of very enthusiastic people, despite the chilly overcast and at times drizzly weather.  I dressed up in steampunk-themed garb and very proudly wore my great great grandfather's original Waltham, MA gold pocket watch from the 1890s.  Here are some photos from the festival.  Enjoy!

And here are photos of the enthusiastic attendees:

If you did not happen to see my previous blog about the festival BEFORE my participation, which defines the steampunk genre and tells about why Waltham, MA is called "The Watch City," here is the link to it:​
