Hi Melandra- I replied to an earlier post, but think it may have just gone
to a single recipient instead.  Us early music luddites really don't
understand computers!

I do actually live in San Diego (that's Caid, right?).  I was just
surprised that while at Pennsic there were early musicans all over the
place, I had yet to find any around here in the SCA.  Happily, looks like I
just hadn't looked hard enough.

Astridhr, any chance you could forward meeting times/contacts to me for the
local instrumental groups?  Perhaps you could post them, in case there's
any other lurking San Diego area types on this list.  Thanks!
