[Steppes] Steppes Fighter Practice - 12-11-05

[Mike]

Heilsa,

Sunday - Sun shinning with Halo
  A bit of cloud - West Wind
Temperature - 56 F
Welcome change from earlier

Perfect day to be out and about
14 days and counting
Perhaps shopping
Perhaps a bit more party to recover from

Then there is/was need to kick back
Relax and watch some play pigskin

Whatever the reason, it was a good day
To be out and about -
In armor or not
A small gathering of souls seeking
Warmth of Rattan and leather
Hand painting and beading for...

Rapier made an appearance
Then off to play with Rosenfeld and Shadowlands
A good day for them as well - temperatures about right

People in armor:  3
Children: 3
Total in attendance: 14

Next Joint War Practice:
January 1st
Steppes - Mary Heads Carter (MHC) in Carrollton
2 PM until 5 or 6 PM or when light fails.
Yes, it is the 1st day of the new year - treat it just like you would
if you party too hard the night before at a War event.

Although the temperatures are cooler
And the weather has moderated, the usual reminder:
Please bring at least 1 gallon or more of water and gatorade. I
recommend 2 gallons of fluids and snacks to replenish your
energy levels. Plus, various types of snacks - cold pickles
- oranges - energy bars - etc... - Bring Chairs for you to sit upon.
- Perhaps a grill to heat drinks and/or snack food
- Dress for the weather and bring extra for additional layers as well.
