[Ansteorra] Events on Ice (Was: EMPIRE of Xanadu)

[Dr. C. M. Helm-Clark Ph.D.]

***SIGH***

It's always an adventure, moving to a new kingdom,
meeting new people, making new friends and hitting
them over the head with rattan  ;-)

But please don't make me homesick before we've even
packed the car...  :(

This weekend we decided not to go to an event a mere
five hours up the road (and only 3 mountain passes!)
The event fee includes the rental of ice skates.

There might be a rapier melee on ice (pending safety
approval - my imagination tainted with too many years
of chirurgeoning had a field day!) and snowballs are
permitted in the snowfort battle.

We decided not to go to the event so we could get in
my last day's worth of ice fishing for trout and salmon
before I emigrate to the land of catfish and bass...
(It's hard, choosing between SCA and fishing... ;)

***SIGH*** I'll have to learn a whole new way of
fishing...this could be fun...and I've wanted to make
the fishing rod from the _Complete Angler_ (a period
treatise on fishing "with an angle") for ages...!  ;)
