Medieval Living

I’d like to report that Medieval Game Night was such a huge success that I need to rush out to the workshop and make a dozen more Morris boards to use the following week . . . but . . . that’s not the case. As with any new endeavor, the results do not always match the hopes and expectations. Unfortuantely, Thursday night’s attendance was zero. The chess club had a nice turn-out . . . I think there were about 10 people at last count. But my little corner of the world was rather lonely. Meh – I wasn’t really expecting throngs of people and news reporters and police officers directing traffic. Any number of things could have prevented people from attending.
So . . . next week, we will try again. A little more effort on my part to advertise the event . . . and maybe a few more weeks of no one showing . . . but in due time, there will be some one interested and . . . and that’s all I am really hoping for at this point . . . to bring one other person into an awareness of some of the activities of people in the Medieval era. Then in another week or two or three, another person might find some interest . . .and so on. Patience, damn it, patience!!! Oh . . . as always, Starbucks makes a good cup of joe, so the night was not a total waste. And Barnes and Noble always has a few good books to read – found one on chainmail jewelry which was nicely done!
