One of those priorities....and cool links.

Monthly EGA meeting that I said I would teach the penny rug class at is tonight. Last night I was able to leisurely double-check the bag and put the finishing touches on the recycled wool examples. Sooo nice not to be rushing around. Now here is hoping I haven't forgotten anything at the last minute :).

Working on the 'to do' list and priorities for this weekend. Some yard and house work may need to be in there, probably more time in the sweatshop too but hey, I can find things there now :).

And partially for keeping track of these myself. Over on SCA LJ these links were posted about a major redo of Dover Castle to the period of Henry II:

And then this one to another living history site in England (they have a lot :) ) this one also has a virtual tour:

Sigh, I would really like to have a 16th century living history site around here....

I've had the chance to go to Barley Hall, and believe me, it's worth the price of the plane ticket all by itself. Amazing. And the gift shop is cool, too :-)

Ooo, shopping! We ran amuck in the shop at the Plimoth plantation last year too. So many things in that field of interest all in one place. Plus we had a discount as volunteers :). Where's the winning powerball ticket.....
