: Hey,
: I discovered this site about 4 days ago, and I was originaly just looking for sheet music for LOTM tunes, and I discover how totally AWESOME this site is!!! WOW what a cool message board! I just thought I'd um.. introduce myself to yahl because I may spend a good deal of time here from now on, well I hope that that's not wrong to just do this but... So hi, my name's ZAC and I am a Rendezvouser for the most part. Although I do historical re-enactments for many time eras,(from 1750 to Rev. war, Fur trade, and Cowboy times, and even WWII) my favorite would have to be from the late 1750's to Rev. War.
: First off, are most of you rendezvousers?... Some, at least? I am looking for a personna to really get into, but as of yet I am kindof the Jack of all trades, but Master of none.... Get my drift? I don't know exactly where to start, but Just somthing French&Indian War preferably british, as that's what most my family and friends are...... So, if its not to much trouble, could someone attempt to help me out, or just throw a few ideas out for me?
: Forever Indebted,

Hi Zac,
The board seems slow today. If you want to get into reenacting and into this 1750-1780 timeframe this is website is certainly a good start. Many reenactors post and visit her, and some are quite expert at it. Our own Clabert, and the MacLeods for instance. Not to mention that Mark Baker posted her back when he had time - of which he has none anymore being a regular contributor to Muzzleloader Magazine, and providing historical expertise to movies such as LOTM and The Patriot. I am sure many here would be happy to help you get started in the era, just give em time to reply to you. This is a very knowlegeable and friendly place about history, LOTM, that time period etc.
Welcome!
