Yamashiro Kato: 12th Night - 2009 version
http://yamashirokato.blogspot.com/2009/01/12th-night-2009-version.html
Journal of a 13th Century Samurai now living in the Kingdom of Calontir. Monday, January 5, 2009. 12th Night - 2009 version. Went to 12th Night for the 8th or 9th straight year. You'd think I liked this event or something. It wasn't much different than every other year. Lots of fun and fighting, as usual. A new fighter was thinking about going up with me, but decided to spend time with his girlfriend instead. Sheesh! 160;Where is his priorities? At the end of the tournament, they announced they had 76...

Journal of a 13th Century Samurai now living in the Kingdom of Calontir. Wednesday, April 22, 2009. It's Spring, so time to get working on new projects. I am wanting to remake and retool my armor. The first thing I'm wanting to do, and one that I have been wanting to do for some time is make a new Kabuto. I am getting the pieces of my shop in order to begin working on it very soon. I will post images and updates when I begin working on it. Increase the length of the mabizashi (brow). My Quest to Crown.

Yamashiro Kato: 2009 Goals
http://yamashirokato.blogspot.com/2009/02/2009-goals.html
Journal of a 13th Century Samurai now living in the Kingdom of Calontir. Wednesday, February 18, 2009. I know, it's late for resolutions, but this isn't a resolution. Just a few goals I'd like to meet in the SCA. With my new mundane job, vacation and income have changed for me so I'd like to start planning ahead what I'd like to accomplish in the next year or so. Open shop for armoring. Make a whole new set of armor. Attend Estrella, Gulf, and Pennsic all the same year. Prepare for, and fight in Crown.

Yamashiro Kato: Take one Lilies and call me in the morning.
http://yamashirokato.blogspot.com/2008/06/take-one-lilies-and-call-me-in-morning.html
Journal of a 13th Century Samurai now living in the Kingdom of Calontir. Monday, June 23, 2008. Take one Lilies and call me in the morning. After my last post, I felt a little.underwhelmed with things in my SCA life. But after getting back from Lilies, my outlook has improved a tad. I had a good time. I got my fighting in, I saw some friends I haven't seen in awhile, I carried on a tradition, and I think I've started a new tradition. It was a very touching send-off for Ivan.

Yamashiro Kato: Project: Silk Banner
http://yamashirokato.blogspot.com/2008/08/project-silk-banner.html
Journal of a 13th Century Samurai now living in the Kingdom of Calontir. Tuesday, August 26, 2008. My first attempt I did a more European style banner. It is more like a pendant and tapered on one end. Meant to fly horizontally. My next one for me will be a Japanese style which will fly vertically. Below are some of the pictures of the process. Click on any picture for a larger, more detailed image. The dyes have been applied. I did two coats of dye, mainly because the first coat was too streaky....Migue...

Much fun was had by all and the quarreling guilds were quelled quickly, (yes, I'm good) and now there is peace in the Kingdom. Yeah, that's him. Well, we sat and talked for quite a bit. He is getting into a Japanese persona and we just sat around and talked shop for a while. It was a good time. After the tournamen...
