The Friday before the Vacation!

Jul 27, 2007 08:49

A week of lounging around a pool and shuffling the kids off on their uncles and grandparents (hopefully!) - Should be GREAT! I wonder if there will be internet access where we are going... We will of course have our computers for movies and such, but internet would be nice!! :D

( Medieval Geeky-ness ensues! )

Tery knows all about this and would know exactly which shire you are in. She used to go to a ton of their stuff and still considers herself a member (and I know she'd love to do more with it if she had the time) I know they used to meet right by you at Woodland Park and perhaps still do.

I kind of figured she might know something more!!

She did say something about rapier fighting/meetings at Woodland park on Fridays... Have you ever considered joining? For research purposes (Of course! Not for fun or anything - no way!) You know, your hubby would be a GREAT minstrel/jester/bard :D

the only SCA thing I've done is some horseback riding lessons but I've always thought it would be a lot of fun. Rosalie used to go to fencing all the time.

Sounds like a blast. I need to be cloned.

Time and money, time and money! Too much of one, not enough of the other...
Or more often not enough of EITHER!! :(
I don't know that I would like a clone though...

You are indeed in Gryphon's Lair for all official stuff, although we have a tendency to associate more with Loch Salaan. You live in the heart of Shire Terra Sylvae, and not all that far from its primary home, Woodland Park. This is the rapier group I was telling you about--currently the standard for the rapier fighter in the SCA. Time I can't help you with, but we have loaner gear and garb for everyone who wants to play. You can find some stuff about us on orderoftherose.com. And you thought you were a geek! I can help you with that.

I AM a geek - but I definitely need some help in some areas...
I couldn't get orderoftherose.com to work - but http://www.orderoftherose.org does and looks like it's the right one!
What's your SCA name if you don't mind my asking?

Is THIS you?
