: just wanted to say hi.

: my name's Bob. i live in Utica, NY (Mowhawk Valley).

: i've always been a history buff, but wasn't all that interested in American history beyond the superficial until i saw LOTM in the theater.

: for the last 10 years i've been doing medieval reenactment (society for creative anachronism), and have gone about as far as i care to with that right now.

: this summer i plan on attending some F&I War events. Fort Stanwix is about 15 min. away and they host some events. i'll be starting with the '1750's longhunter' thing for a nice generic start.

: i guess what i'm saying is that i was deeply inspired by LOTM and that now i have an interest in my local/state history, as well as pre-Rev reenactment. if there happens to be anyone in my area with similar interests here, i'd love to hear from you.

: take care,

: bob

Well, howdy yourself, Bob!

It's not hard to be inspired by LOTM. Good luck with your time travel from medieval times to the colonial era.

BTW---what did you do as a medieval reenactor? Were you King, Knight, servant, peasant, priest, or torturer? Did you joust? Did you jest? Did you save fair maidens? Slay dragons? Or were you the troll who guarded the bridge? (I once had to run away from one of those at a Renaissance fair! He wanted a kiss before I could cross----eeeeeeewwwww!) Do tell all!
