I had the opportunity to attend THACO2 in St Paul MN this last weekend where I was able to authorize sword and shield. The Knight that attended the authorization was Northshield's newest Vladimir Radescu.
I overheard my local marshall say that he didn't think he would ever see me with a shield again.

Yoshimitsu dono, I hail from the Shire of Rivenwood Tower. I have been attending fighter practice in Mankato since last fall.
Kiku dono, My armor is really ugly so I had it coverred up with a blue and white surcoat. I looked thoroughly european. Were you the one in the black and white dou?
Ayame dono, now we need to get together and sew some clothing. As they say (the kosode makes the samurai (loosley paraphrased)
And Makiwara dono
Two new friends online
One grateful for the other's
wisdom and support.
The other, omnipresent,
always first to encourage.

Constant as the tide Is this place where strangers meet And share a few hours. The Eastern Mountain Road* is Where friendships are often born. (*Tousando) |

I'm sending you a message on Facebook so we can arrange something.Apparently private messages on Facebook are blocked here at work... I know, I will do it through the Rivenwood email list and open up the sewing day to whoever else might be interested. |

Don't know if you realized this, but there's a private message feature here on Tousando for logged in users. Scroll up to the top of the screen and you should see "Hey, __________ , you have ___ messages, _ are new. Apr 29, 2011, 10:24am" immediately to the right of Samurai Hello Kitty. Click on the word "messages" to get into your in-box and you can send and receive private notes to other forum members. |

I was just being durr today... The sun is out and I just want to be outside and not in here writing programs all day. I hear that. I've spent much of my day numbing my mind with the scanning of piles of old payroll files for archival purposes, when I'd rather be hitting the road to head up to Beltane. I suppose I can tough it out for one more hour.  |

Matataro dono, by looking at the THACO2 pics with Yoshimitsu it would seem we were possibly on the same team! Yes, mine is the black and white armor with the ugly bright blue helm. (new helm is being worked on) I hope to fight against you some day! Congrats again!
