I'll be on site around 3:00-ish. I will try and post onto the forum and/or send a text message to as many of you that I have their cell numbers. Check the event posting in the DC area of the Order Discussion section of the forum for the number. I don't want to post it in the public section of the forum.

Squire Jason can you bring that velvet table cloth again?

I have my large cooler and two cases of water. Bring whatever beverage you all might also like. :)

Hmm, never thought of leaving today, but then again I will have to arrive during the morning.

Looks good!  When will we be holding the memorial for the fallen Sir James?  Dinosaur's a tough way to go, but it looks like he went out valiantly.  He will be missed...  :'(

Looks like you guys had a great time! Hope my brother behaved well enough  ;)
Oh and I heard James took a nasty hit on the head after a long walk uphill. That explains why the dinasaur had easy pickings with him lol

Momentary sting, I felt a sharp pain in my neck after I took a shot to the head followed by a shot to the neck, but found out later in the day I... well, have two pimples along my neckline that I thing got smacked into by my hard leather gorget when I was hit in the neck. For a split second it literally felt like the crossguard had gone through the aventail, mail standard, and leather.

It was a great shot and kudos to Sir Brian for whomping me from proverbial pillar to post. After the initial shock, since I lost 0 to 3, I looked over to say "another!" in hopes of at least scoring *one* point, but realized that Sir Edward had started talking about the cutting portion.

We did the pictures with the raptor, and the video of running away, after I got hit in the head repeatedly. I was fine, just a temporary shock moment. I had a great time, despite the large tooth-marks in my leg and mangled greave....

Well I hope you recover, and that dent in your helm I heard about also! Haha you guys roughed up my bro so badly it made him miss out on some solid education today.

Go ahead, rub it in. But don't forget whose farby pants and boots you borrowed.

Nothing to recover from, I worked a full day today and back on normal schedule as usual. :)

That dent, on the other hand... eesh. Gonna be a bit before that's in proper order again...

It was a good match and you fought hard and well. The points and winner of a dual doesn't really matter as any given exchange can have different results. Yet that dent does cause my OCD to twitch and I feel the compulsion growing to "even it up" on the other side. No worries though if I do get a chance to even it up, you can use those dents as a guide to add horns to your bascinet and look like a 'real' Viking! ;)

Here is one of the pictures from Sir Edward's gallery that I cropped which shows it pretty well.  ;)

Good show and well done by all.  Was good to see the Order in action.
