This month I don't have quite as much to report.
I had wanted to attend Bright Hills Baronial Birthday and Investiture on the first Saturday of the month, but during the week leading up to that event, I had spent so much time chipping away at the thick ice that encrusted the driveway that I decided not to go. Wind gusts of 60 mph or more would have made the driving difficult, anyway. I ended up sealing off the bathroom crawl space with plastic bags and duct tape.
I finished the February issue of the Drekkar a few days late. I was waiting for a contributor to send in her item, but she didn't have time to finish it because she was taking care of another resident of our Barony who had surgery. It's hard to fault her for that. And the patient is well on her way to a full recovery.
Tonight is the monthly baronial business meeting, and I will attend and take notes. Then the newsletter cycle will start all over again.
A lot of other stuff (weaving, sewing, etc.) will have to wait because I have a non-SCA feature article (for freelance pay) due in TWO WEEKS. The events for the rest of the month are all in Richmond or south of Richmond, anyway. (Richmond is more than 120 miles from my home.) March and April will bring lots of events, though!
Another bit of news to savor: The next Known World Dance and Music Symposium (KWDMS) has been announced! It'll take place in July 2027 at Carleton University in Ottawa, the capital city of Canada. I've never been to Ottawa, so maybe we can even practice a little tourism before or after the event. Something to look forward to!
