I’m back

Back from Hostfest, alive and well and only slightly scathed. I won’t do a big post tonight, because I’m exhausted (my usual state at this point). I’ll just share a picture (there will be more tomorrow).

Hostfest 1

This is me in our Viking camp, presiding in lordly splendor, backed up by a gorgeous quilted banner that somebody in Minot produced for our exhibit. I’m wearing my brand new Viking tunic, which I got to wear for the first time that day. Unfortunately I had to give it back to the lady in our group who makes these things, because she wants to do some final finishing on it.

Tomorrow: Amusing anecdotes and passive aggression.



Note:
In Photobucket this picture is right side up. I can’t figure out how to make it transfer correctly.



Update to note:
Apparently it’s all right. I just needed to re-load the page. Never mind.

  1. It was a pleasure to see you again, as always, Lars. Call me dim, but I actually don’t think I’d caught on till you reviewed the Heimskringla with me, that there is so much there about Erling Skalgsson, which, of course, you have drawn upon in The Year of the Warrior and West Oversea. I’ll have to delve into it more someday. Right now, Shakespeare has to be the focus. Now if it weren’t for the fact that a different prof does Hamlet, I would be thinking about some way to incorporate Blood and Judgment into my Shakespeare course!
