This Saturday, we went to the local joust. Yes, they joust here. For real, too, full speed with frangible lances, just like they did historically. Very cool.

Some of the SCA friends we enjoyed the day with:

Stephen *is* Chatelaine now for the local group. “Welcome to Darton. Here’s your seat on the Council” indeed.

What else have we been up to ? More digging. This lovely big hole is for our new 22500 liter water tank (currently in the front paddock, rolling on its back like a big green plastic turtle — high winds the other day, you see). Stephen is very, very butch (and tired).

And meeting some more of the locals:

The cute rays were devastating, I assure you. Funnily enough, the cats not only weren’t interested, they barely noticed it at all — I don’t think it registered as a critter. Wacky.
