[Ansteorra] the old days

[gail young]

I think this event is a perfect time to celebrate the best of those times and mark how far we have come.   The SCA does much the same thing by re-enacting the best parts of the middle ages instead of the plague<G>

Perhaps, since the SCA has taken on a more serious perspective of  history since 
then, it's good that so much of the early days seems to have  disappeared into 
thin air (with Merlin).




One scene I remember and have always meant to write a poem about was the  
long procession of women and children emerging out of the swirling mists  and 
struggling to reach their goal at the top of the hill in the very early  
morn...to the Porta-Johns..
