Timeline of Activity:

1989: Had heard of the SCA in the early 80s. I dated a gentleman who was from the Kingdom of the East, but didn't really get involved at that time.

1991: I moved to Texas, and attended the Texas Renaissance Festival. I signed up at the booth there, and they reached and contacted me. My first event was the Crown Tournament when Rowan won by right of arms.

My first camping event was at the Stones. I went with Annes Clotilde von Bamburg, who was one of my earliest contacts with the SCA in Ansteorra. We were going to be camping in what she called the "Two Titty Pavilion." She was getting things ready in another part of the camp and asked me to deal with the tent. It was a pile of poles and fabric and ropes I had no idea what to do! I told her that, and she said, "You're a female. This is Ansteorra. See them? They're all squires and knights. They will get the tent up for you - just go ask. " I was surprised, but went up to Sir William Miesko the Bear, and said, "Annes wants me to get this pavilion up. I don't know what to do..." He turned and belted out, "SQUIRES TO ME!" And that pavilion got put up just like that. I was thinking: I like this! Yep, she taught me a little bit about Ansteorra that trip!

1994: Moved out of Ansteorra and off into distant lands, and began participating there.
