Congrats to the jousters! I hope I can go see them next year. (I saw them very very briefly while driving by on my way to lunch from work!)
What a great article, too --equestrian articles are the best because they always focus on the most important element (the horses, duh). Biographies of the noble steeds! Details of saddlery and modifications thereof! The key feature of heavy armor being that one cannot manage one's own tack! Headgear comparisons! Historical breed notes!
It makes me miss riding I always wanted a Western endurance saddle! I even had one all picked out for future purchasing...
Hope you had fun there; did you watch the jousting?
