I have met some of the best people ever in the SCA. Things happen in
he SCA that would never happen in a mundane sense. Such as last Gulf
hen my new drum came up missing. Someone found it and mailed it back
o me. At a mundane camp I would most likely have never found it
gain. That is the coolness of the SCA.

likely never have experienced elsewhere.
I'm still 335ish, but I used to be much much
heavier. I went to an event and wound up meeting Baron
Andreas. The guy made me look small, showed me a ring
that made my size 12 or more hand look puny.
He also rummaged through his drinks stash until he
found something even a teetoaller like me would drink,
and a vessel to drink it out of. He later introduced
me to another long-time SCAdian.
I know he was hospitalized at one point in the past
couple of years, don't know how well/if he recovered.
It's just one of the memories that come to me when
I think of the SCA.
Another is HL Damon and his wonderful Lady Wife.
They invited me, basically a stranger, into their
home. He helped me customize some full gaunts, gave me
a stick of rattan for a greatsword hilt, and even
split it for me.
Damon did ask something in return..that I help
someone in return, in time.
I could go on, but y'all get my drift,
this is the spirit of much of the best of the SCA..
fond memories, and kindnesses extended in real life.
Val
