<DIV><FONT size=4>The majority of us arrived by noon, bringing projects and
food. We were threatened by dark clouds off and on all day but nary a drop
from the sky fell. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>The loaner armor box was straightened out and items added to
it and some "missing" personal items removed. </FONT><FONT size=4>We
discovered that Baron Brian du Val was the only person capable of unbuckling the
black kidney belt. </FONT><FONT size=4>A kidney belt was found that works
for Lord Devin. Also found was an armoring belt that will only fit a very
small person. Lady Rosalia's armor had some adjustments made to it.
Lord Pace worked on his armor. Centurion Michael was working on metal
holders for torches plus assisting with the proper way to put armor on and how
to make adjustments. Trees in the front yard were seriously
chastized by various people smacking them with a mace.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Lord Lemoine conducted an experiment invovling fire, rocks and
vinegar. Every time he would check the rocks we would all rush to the fire
to see what was going to happen. Wood ash was also collected for pigment
usage.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Mistress Shanahan worked on a garment putting final beading
touches on it. Lady Giovanna, Valerie Longhair and myself spoke
with Gavin regarding fabrics for use in Ansteorra weather. A cloak
and tunic made by Baron Brian's Lady Ayla for Amanda was examined and
discussed the best way to finish the shearling lined cloak and how to add the
trim to the new tunic for Gulf Wars. Items deemed necessary to travel to
Gulf Wars was discussed. Lord Devin helped Lord Pasquale and Lady Giovanna
with their calligraphy signatures.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>Lord Eogan came by to visit for a bit later on. Lord
Volod brought his helm later in the afternoon to work on it. The Brat
Master cooked for us. Lots of food and no one left hungry. Cupcakes,
brat/sausage (yes we made sure Hanse wasn't in the area), veggies & chips,
salad, beans and a new version of the Infamous Peach Cobbler.
