Any renaissance people here?

I was never Knighted myself. I was a Squire but my Knight died suddenly of a heart attack and then I kind of fell out of the SCA as I got involved with EMS and building my house.

I did attend a few Knighting's and well, they where pretty awesome. I did completely forget that none of this was 'real'. Or perhaps it is the only thing that is real. Hard to say really.

But if you ever meet a Knight of the SCA in the wild, know that they are an exceptional person.

I was the third person knighted....

In a software package called LabVIEW used for research and automation projects...

But not the SCA.

That looks really nice. Have you ever tried using dried gourds for water vesicles.

Animals skins, gourds & bamboo are some of the oldest forms of carrying water when traveling. Then wooden canteens where used, metal, now everything plastic.
