Calder, I'm purchasing the A-Frame "Norman Wedge" from Fall Creek next week. I'm getting the two door style because I want to be able to prop one side up as a day shade/display pavillion for demos as well. I've seen thier work and they are more than adequate for standing up in to dress, it...

the Dayton Masonic temple. Beautiful site. The best part being the gallery above the lists to observe the fighting. But no feast.

Yes Zygmunt. If Master Phillip the Pilgrim was there, and I no doubt he was, I'm sure he will post pictures in a week or so.

and someone once said that Palymar was a decent cook

Any chance of Raiding on the Coast. Those Amish have some mighty fine Copper wares!

When will she be put back out to see Capt. I'll be in the area around March TDY and I'd love to take part if I can.

Where oh where has Sir Jocelyn gone!? She came in 2nd place to Lutr. I can't wait to see her fight again!

Ceadda

I didn't realize it was not possible to be a Bachelor King/Maiden Queen. What's the thinking behind this policy? A King and Queen have different duties. Several events withing the Middle are designed specifically for the Queens, Countesses and Duchesses of the Realm. The Queen is the Patron of Arts...

The Reasons why People fight in Crown Tourneys that I've heard of or seen myself To be King To Honor thier Lady and make her a Queen (from Lutr) To fight against the best To be seen fighting against the best and gain recognition To challange the next King To prevent a certain someone from becoming a...

I throw some belief behind the idea that a KSCA should fight in each crown tourney he is able. As the best of the best, it should be his or her duty to test the physical prowess of each contender to the crown. I also understand mundane life; finances, etc. Being in the military, I could never concie...

hmmmmmm, SCA-legal trident. Can it be done?

Ceadda

Denewulf, this is awesome. I beg you to recite this during the Christmas Tourney this year. With so many Norsemen in the Kingdom these days, we are edging in a Norseman's theme.

Ceadda

I'd recommend Fall Creek as well. For the price, thier tents are awesome. You can always look into dying it a darker color is you want it to look closer to leather. I know the draw of haveing an impressive campsite. But weigh how much time you will actually spend inside your tent vs. comfort and you...

Well damn. This looks like something I would definatly be interested in. Unfortunatly it will have to wait until I PCS to the Pentagon myself next year.

CPT Arch made it to the Final Four? Thats Awesome!

Or she could go really early period. Ancient Crete, perhaps?

I'm partial to Mistress Nonna, called Nonna the Midwife, purveyor of fine mugs and jugs. And what nice jugs they are.

She'll be at Fishers RenFaire outside of Indy this weekend.

In the recreation of the Middle Ages, the most common custom practiced by all of us is the act of obeisance. That means Bowing. There are many styles and forms of obeisance. Depending on your personal style and your persona, the manner in which you show respect for crowned heads may differ from anot...

How about Tai chi chuan for everyone, every day.

and at a time here in America were obesity grows and every school district in the nation cuts it's budget by lessening or eliminateing sports and PE programs.

I know a few people who want to do more Equestrian SCA stuff down here in the Southern Middle. It's strange that here in the horse state, we never see them at events. I've got a few retired Rodeo horses and 160 acres. Havent been in the sadle since March though.

Ceadda

yes, the key word I meant in my previous statement was DEVOUT. I'm sorry if that wasn't understood. Think of it this way. Saudi Arabia is a Muslim country. Law is based upon religious teachings. Does that mean everyone is Devout? Does traffic and business cease for all prayer times everywhere in the...

I'm not certain but I believe Sir John is embedded deep within the Green Zone.

Ceadda

If you decide your persona would have been religious, that's great. Of course devotion is entirely individual, regardless of place or time. Not everyone in the High Middle Ages in western Europe was devoutly Catholic. I see no issue with it on the scroll or read in court. I've heard similar statemen...

Drachenwald or Atlantia (ie Pentagon) should declare Iraq and Afganistan to be Strongholds of the Kingdom. BTW, I just recently took charge of revitalizing the Midrealm Warriors Project. Any lord or lady of the Midrealm who has entered military and/or any who has been sent away from home and most es...

I know that the Navy has no problem with the SCA, and I've heard there have been Shires on Aircraft Carriers. What's the Army's official stance on the SCA and soldiers being involved with the SCA? Just curious cause it seems there are a LOT of SCA folks in Outremer presently. It would be cool if th...

There is also a Viscount stationed in Baghdad at the moment. Sir John recently moved from Italy to Virginia only to deploy within a month of arriving back CONUS.

the tech existed to make em smooth and polished, both with the romans and celts. no reason to hammer em unless you really want to.

I must admit, seeing women run around in cotehardies with no underdress and no sleeves from a couple of inches above the elbow down is one of my big pet peeves. It actually bugs me slightly (but only slightly) more than the guys in knights regalia with the "agro peasant" look. It's really...

Seek out the early period folks....

I think the guys over at Ancient Celtic Clans have done just what you need.

See if you can get the folks running the Kitchens at Hampton Court to answer some questions.... It's later period medieval ( Tudor )but it might help. You know, some of them have a blog: m Also nifty: one of them has a YouTube channel, at m I'll have to wait until I get home to check out the YouTub...

Mad Murdock's Merchandise?

Ceadda

Well, Lutr has sons. Perhaps Konrad has a daughter he could marry off, or the daughter of one of his barons, to secure the loyalty.

As for the location, I'd say somewhere out west, larger, flatter land. even the desert.

I'm all for Imperialism.
