Heilsa,
Clouds off in the distance
Gray in nature with white
Among each
Giving warning or was it just a Tease
High of 96 - though must have come earlier
Between waves of moisture
Sun return to baked the Air
Turning Cool to Muggy and Humid, Air
It was all good - hard rain fell in sheets
Strong winds blew
While those who came out
Enjoyed the rain
While instruction in fighting continue
All the while under the main pavilion
Armor resting for use another day
Gothic Wars:
Next Weekend - Labor Day Weekend
September 1st through 4th
Sweetwater, Texas
Know that that a good many good gentles are making plans
to tend this gathering. I do not believe that there will be a
fighter practice next Sunday, but that is for the Steppes
Knight Marshal to decide. Do not depend upon what
the Steppes Web site shows on its calendar - it has been
wrong before.
Please start drinking extra water several days prior to the
day of practice.
This is also true of going to an event, be it SCA related or not.
You will have a better time and enjoy yourself more
if you are hydrate before you start your activity.
Energy drinks may give you a lift, but will not carry you as far,
when compared to water and gatorade.
Remember - Pace yourself!
