<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>Defender was my very first SCA
event.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>Due to a small red rocket dog that had
neck surgery I was only able to be there Saturday evening and night.
</FONT><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>Because I have 2 Large furred
beasties and one small Jester dog I had to have a dog sitter. (I
love my neighbors).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>Everyone that I had met at various
meetings and actually recognized me in garb were extremely pleasant and
</FONT><FONT face="Blackadder ITC" size=6><FONT
face="Bradley Hand ITC">helpful. I am so ready to go to the next event
that I am swooning in anticipation.</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>I was able to offer a sharp knife for
use by the Amazons but the male chickened out and removed the offending
garment.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>I will never be able to face a
kielbasa without snickering.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>So now I have a tent, garb (more garb
to follow-to heck with unpacking moving boxes), my flickering solar tiki lights
and will take more than one camera! Guess I need to learn how to use the
new sewing machine so I can just embroider the trim onto my gowns. Next
time I will wear some of my Kuchi loot.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>From what little I saw I think that
when I grow up I would like to be a member of the Amazon tribe since I can't be
a Sweinbrothar (wrong parts attached to me).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Bradley Hand ITC" size=6>Runa (who was truly impressed and is
still full from feast)</FONT></DIV>
