Would love to but will have to have a rain check on this until I am back in harness

It's a non-harness event :)

Ya, if you aren't hardcore! Haha jk, no need for harness. This is supposed to be a happy occasion. If you ask me, it will be crowded with men sweaty men in armor, while you'll be nice and dry and comfortable out of the harness.

So, if I recall correctly, we're all to meet at 6:15pm in front of the Hard Times Cafe...anyone have an address I can put in my GPS?  What're we wearing?  It is supposed to be cold, but not as withering as its been of late.  I think I'll opt for a soft kit, no armor.  My wife wants to know if we're all going in garb or if streetclothes are fine.

GPS address would be great.

I'm going in garb, I think. Chris may be too. Might do the assassin's creed thing. Not going for historical.

I think the plan is for most of us to be in some sort of garb, either soft kit or light armor. Modern clothes are of course fine as well. My wife will probably wear her medieval dress, and I'm probably going to go with hauberk, gambeson, and surcoat.

Here's a set of directions, going from the Hard Times to Medieval Madness, so you can see both locations:

That's almost three blocks away- thank goodness I'll not be in harness!  lol

Pretty cool that its literally right down the block there, no turns.

I may not even wear gambeson. I find it heavy, But I probably will.
But Ill see, I think all I need now is a new belt, My old one was able wide, and wouldnt shift around. Ill have to use that one.
But Ill be in my new templar surcoat, Ill have my coif.
Ill have all of my kit on, just not Helm or sword.(lol, maybe they should just have a helm and shield hanger, along with a weapon rack)(or we could all be bring nerf swords, shields, daggers, etc.)

Whatever I bring Im sure Ill look the best.

I'm not sure how much we'll have to hunt for parking. It's a saturday, around dinner time, so we may all be parking on the side streets. It's just something to consider with regards to arrival time.

Most definitely! Also I received my restock of pins and will be bringing enough to give to our honored guests who are not in the order or of the rank to wear the garter. Last tally our group should be 19!  :)
