Eversquire redux

I'm not shooting much these days. Like not at all. Last time I went to the range was for a friend's bachelor party and just shot my 22 AR, 22 AA conversion kit for the G17 and a few rounds out of the G26.

I *have* been doing more SCA stuff. My wife and I got active again about two years ago and have been doing a lot with the local group. Still have a hard time getting to events but she is now seneschal and I am knights marshal of An dun Theine.

It's interesting and humbling to come back after 10 years to see the folks you remember as new faces are now the old guard. Many of my old friends are peers, some royal peers. Garb and fighting kits are more period looking these days.

I have eschewed my old plate and leather armor for hockey shins/knees, football shorts and a Zoombang shirt with plastic elbows. Still using the old helm, gorget and 1/2 gauntlets. Gone to a much longer sword, ~40" now.

Been doing the 100 shot per day pell challenge for 22 days now. Pell is set up in the garage which is somewhat limiting but allows a quick set without going outside.

Doing push ups ~100 per day but have not kept them up as regularly as I should. Also trying to dry fire 100 times a day which helps my eyes. I've come to rely on +1.75 readers for a lot of things but try to dry fire without them.
