War Post

Potrero War was unbelievably fun. The weather was perfect, the site was beautiful, and I fought really well. I had a blast. I think it was the most fun I've had in the SCA so far. So much better than Estrella. I'm really getting the hang of line fighting and it's a lot of fun.

Potrero is way down south and east of San Diego in the boonies. The shade was lovely and with the breeze kept the temperatures just right. I took Friday to prepare myself to fight on Saturday. For some reason eating has not been my main priority lately and I almost bought it when I was helping house Valentine set up camp. Friday I shot my recurve bow for the first time in competition and didn't miss the target once! Sweet! New Arrows too. James is letting me borrow some of his. As for throwing knives. I either hit the red or can't hit the broad side of a barn.

Saturday was one long day of AWESOME! I had so much fun it's ridiculous. I much prefer small wars to large wars. The fields are smaller and there is a lot more action. I can hardly wait until the next fight.

And my new tent was the bomb. just the right size.

Spent all my refund check at war. Bought a basket and a beautiful knife.
