A Blending of the Past and Present       

Here is the list of my featured SCA Rialto files for this month. I have

a copy of my complete file list. If you would like a copy of any of these 
files, just let me know. I can print them on paper for you, copy them 
to a computer disk or send them by email.

Those of you who have World-Wide-Web (WWW) access can get these files at:
