My WEIRD Experience!
August 28th 1999,
I swear I just couldn't believea my eyes. We got to the Renaissance Fair at 10:30 am.
This was the first time I ever went. It was being held in Tuxedo, New York about an hour and a half from us. I went with my mom and dad ( dad was driving) my mom's friend and my friend Moonlight Angel. When we walked in, everyone was dressed in their garb and talked with the accents. We decided to go to the 11:00 am " Mud Show". You had to sit on these things that looked like saw horses. We sat in the last row nearest the rocks in the middle. A rickety stage was set up with a square mud pit in the center. Three men came out, dressed as beggars. One sttod on stage as the judge and the other two were taking sides. Seating went my mom's friend, my mom, my dad, Moonlight Angel and then me. The beggars informed us they wanted us to sit closer to the stage so we moved up about two or three rows. Directly in frone of me was a "saw horse" that could hold about two people. They started whatever they were doing (rolling in the mud, yelling, etc.) When a woment with wavy, dirty blonde hair to her mid back sat down in frontof me. Then her son sat down on the left side of her, in front
of Moonlight Angel. I coudn't believe it. The little boy looked EXACTLY like Taylor Hanson when he was about seven or eight years old. He had his hair cut in a "Julius Caesar" kind of thing. He had on a light green polo shirt that was about two sizes to big. Along with that he had on jean shorts that were wide and went below his knees and a pair of sneakers. On his right arm I noticed he had a long dragon that was painted and had glitter and two rings on his middle and ring finger he was fiddling around with. His eyes looked really blue like Taylor's too. I wasn't convinced until I saw him smile when the beggars were throwing mud around. His smile was the EXACT same including that gap Taylor has. I hit Moonlight Angel on the arm and whispered for her to look at him. She was too engrossed in the theatrics to pay attention. I stared a that litle boy the whole time. At one point, an orange butterfly flew over and landed on his arm and then landed on me. When he laughed he sounded EXACTLY like Taylor would have when he was younger. ANother point was when he took a camera from his
mother and was going to take pictures of the beggars going into the audience. He turned his head to ask his mother how to work the camera and noticed I was staring at him. I smiled at him and he just smiled back and went on with what he was doing. After about a third of the show was over, him and his mother got up to look closer at the stage and went to the right. I just couldn't believe it. When we were leaving, the five of us stopped while everyone were going by so we could stand in the shade. I grabbed Moonlight Angel and told her to watch out and look for him. Finally I saw him holding his mother's hand and leaving. I pointed and she finally noticed him. She said that he did look like him. We left at 11:30 ( the show was only a half an hour long.) and were going about. At 2:00 pm we went to the "human chess board" which was the equivalent of a small soccerfield with bleachers for the raptor presentation (birds of prey) Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him on the side lines taking pictures of the vulture and hawk. And that was the last time I saw him. If that wasn't freaking enough,
when we left and went to eat, I saw another look-a-alike. It was approximately 8:00 pm and we stopped at a local diner. We sat in a booth (my dad, mom, my mom's friend, me then Moonlight Angel) We ordered and just as the waitress left about four teenagers walked in. One of those teenagers looked EXACTLY like Isaac Hanson. They way were situated, I could turn around and look in the mirror at him. I told Moonlight Angel and she looked. Her jaw dropped. After we finished our meal, Moonlight Angel and I went outside while the rest of out group were still in the restaurant. I turned and said to her
"I wouldn't be surprised if I saw someone that looked like Zac." We both started to laugh. Now if only I had had some brains and brought a camera!
December 19th 1999
I was at my hotel by the pool and this little blonde boy was playing in the water, I heard someone call out Taylor, so I immediately (SP?) loked up. Then I was just sitting there watching him play with this other boy. I was ttying to figure out his name and then I heard Taylor call Zachary. Then I went in the water and my sister and I were playing with them. That was the weirdest thing.
I have one more story. I went to Florida in April of 1998, I went to my grandparents condo and one day when we were there, there was this party. My Grandma's friends have a little grandson and he was there, they needed a baby sitter so she said I would do it. When I got there, I had no idea if it was a girl or a boy who I was baby- sitting, My sister and I were joking that it would ba a little girl named Zoe, but then it ended up being a little boy named Zac.
