Colorado Tartan Day, Celebrating Scottish Independence and the Declaration of Arbroath
From April 6th 2019: good memories and a bit of good history.
(don't miss the Medieval Covid masks)
There were several tents set up creating a Scottish
We discovered armor, antique weaponry, demonstrations of spinning (this nice lady explained the drop-spindle which I have yet to master) beautiful
A wonderful display or armaments and armor.
There was a blacksmith demonstration,
A rare glimpse of a Faerie, as well as numerous Scottie dogs, some wearing kilts.
Submitted on that date, in Latin, to Pope John XXII, the intention was to confirm Scotland's status as an independent, sovereign state, while defending Scotland's right to use military action when unjustly attacked.
Believed to have been written in the Arbroath Abbey by Bernard of Kilwinning, Chancellor of Scotland and Abbot of Arbroath, the letter is the sole survivor of three created at the time.

The others were a letter from the King of Scots, Robert I, and a letter from four Scottish bishops which all presumably made similar points.
Steeped in turmoil and political intrigue the declaration was part of a broader campaign for independence from England's Norman kings and a plea to lift the excommunication of Robert The Bruce.
Here are the most famous lines from the English language translation by Sir James Fergusson, Keeper of the Records of Scotland.
...for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom – for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
Woot woot thanks for stopping by.
Clothes for the romantic at heart.
A rare glimpse of a Faerie, as well as numerous Scottie dogs, some wearing kilts.
For Steampunk lovers there was a leather helm fashioned after the headgear worn by physicians in the middle ages during the plague years. Who knew by 2020 we'd all want one!

BLISS: FAE WARRIORS BOOK 2 
View prizes and enter here
Fae Warrior, Bliss Goodeve, fires up her empath skills to help Mother Nature battle the Reptiles invading Earth. But when it comes to her new human partner, Nathaniel Winston Calhoun, Bliss would rather make love than wage war. A man of mystery, he even makes horn-rimmed glasses and a white lab coat sexy.
Nate admits to being a brainiac, at least that’s the persona he shows the outside world. If his boss discovered his checkered past, life could get complicated. The bad boy in Nate wants Bliss in the worst way. The scientist in him calculates high odds of being left brokenhearted.
After one Reptile goes rogue, it’s up to Bliss, Nate, and an alien critter named Noodge to bring him down. But time is running out, and things are heating up—especially romantically. Bliss is all for living in the moment. But will that be enough for either one of them?
