    About Me I love Art, music and the Faire. I have been learning how to Joust, and for me that's really special. I have always been an avid reader and I finally get to go out and learn all these things that I never had the opportunity to learn and it really means something to me. I've been collecting swords and dragons for many years (my living room looks like an armoury:) and now I get to learn how to use them! My husband shares my intrests and we make everything we can, clothing, weapons, even barding for the horses. You can usually find us at home creating something or at most of the events held by Four Winds Faire.
    Music ANYTHING BUT COUNTRY!!!!!!!!
    Movies Whatever is interesting with good acting and special effects.
    TV don't watch much.
    Books Anything Sci-Fi Fantisy, Historical, or about Dragons.(I have quite a collection with too many authors to list)
    Likes Jousting, Dragons, Wepons training, & great friends.
    Dislikes Rumor mongors, trouble makers. { Watch out! }
    Hobbies Jousting, reading, creating things.
    Vices Sweets Oh, sweets!!
    Virtues I am a very loyal person. If you're my friend, I got your back! (as long as I agree with you:) I get along with most people.

    The competition was great!  My husband ( Sir William the Black ) aka Scott won second place and he's only been riding for 2 months!! Huzzah!!  The next event held at Four Winds will be the Celtic music Festival in September, I'll post more about that later but we will be riding again in CTRF in Bastrop TX July 20th & 21st.

    Jousting!

    Friday, May 29, 2009, 05:24 PM [General]

    I just wanted everyone to know that there will be a Joust out at Four Winds Faire June 6th and 7th!  If you love authenticity, this is better than a show for it is a full- contact competition, not an act!  I will be playing the games of accuracy for my armor is not yet finished ( Unlike you guys out there mine has to be specially made to fit me, they don't make fully opperational armor to fit women:), However there will be Knights in armor competing in the tilt as well.  The gates open at 10am and there will be vendors, arts, crafts, food and fun for the little ones as well.  Please come out and cheer us on as we re-create a historical competition!!
