The Kin

Please Post Once In Here What May Holiday would be your favorite?

I just got back from taking one of my dogs hiking at a nearby nature preserve. I came home to my parrot making kissing noises to me as I walked in.

Hi! Since it was suggested (and requested) that we go ahead and have a thread devoted to the SCA and medieval related conversations, I thought I would go ahead and start that so it does not continue to eat up the 'Weekend Plans' thread! The conversation started on the other thread began with a discussion of choosing personas and costume choices. So we can start there, or with any question or comments anyone wishes to offer up.

Anyone have something special planned? I know some have family dinners/BBQ's and for others it's more religious. You can post here before or after to share.

Please post once in here. Has anyone been watching April the giraffe on live cam? She is supposed to give birth soon. https://youtu.be/oZSGxT5BTH0

Go!

Please post once in here! Fun Facts About March March 1: As the saying goes, March comes “In like a lion, out like a lamb.” That was certainly true on March 1st, 2007, when a detachment of 170 Swiss infantrymen accidentally invaded neighboring Liechtenstein when they got lost on a training mission. March 5: Thirsty bros observe Cinco De Marcho, initiating a 12-day drinking regimen for anyone who wishes to “train one’s liver for the closing ceremonies on St. Patrick’s Day.” http://www.cincodemarcho.com/ March 12: Daylight saving time begins, freeing American city-dwellers from the constant refrain of “it’s dark before I even leave work.” March 14: Pi…

How did you spend New Year's Eve?

Personally, I'm so happy 2016 is over. I know others may have had a good year and I'm happy for that. :) What are you looking forward to in 2017?

Movies Have you seen any? Are you waiting anxiously? I saw Deepwater Horizon today. It was my husband's birthday and we really enjoyed the movie. "On April 20, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig explodes in the Gulf of Mexico, igniting a massive fireball that kills several crew members. Chief electronics technician Mike Williams (Mark Wahlberg) and his colleagues find themselves fighting for survival as the heat and the flames become stifling and overwhelming. Banding together, the co-workers must use their wits to make it out alive amid all the chaos." I'm looking forward to seeing: 1. The Accountant 2. Passengers 3. Rogue One: A …

I will post 3 pictures and you try to guess the movie.

Wishing you all happy holidays and much love in the year to come. Please tell us what you will be doing in December.

As the Eldest, it is my responsibility to maintain and update ranks. The Kin is a friendly place to relax and have fun but we do have an earned rank system. You earn rank (sashes) by participation and signing in to roll call.. I plan on starting to update tomorrow. As you may know, I've had a few health issues and this has slowed me down. Please don't expect it all tomorrow as I think I will not only need to update but then request permissions for other forums within the Kin. There is a process for that. :) So, now you know. The Eldest

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome the Kin members to their new neighbourhood. I hope you'll enjoy all the new sights to see (if you feel so inclined), whilst still feeling comfortable in your own home. Those who know me from the White Tower & Warders, will know I'm not very good with words, so I use pictures instead. Here are a few that for some reason or the other, make me think of the Kin:
