[Ansteorra] For the Sake of Brevity

[Patricia Schmidt]

David,
Thank you so much for your invitation and especially the classes on how to
set up camp, but I don't have it Tent and really no camping equipment I've
never really camped out so that's pretty new to me but I will definitely
consider the Southern regional War College, I  believe you are only a few
hours for me, the Houston area I believe. And I might take you up on that
offer to hang out, if I decide to stay in the SCA.
