June 17-19 was the date of the Scandinavian Centre's Midsummer event. Reik Félag has been putting on the viking village historical interpretive program for years now.

This year, I was not too involved with the village program as I paid for a table to be a crafter/vendor. I dressed in costume and was selling drinking horns, blowing horns, and all manner of bone and horn items. Although it was very lucrative, I'm not sure I'll do it again next year. Perhaps every other year or something.
I am involved in Viking Age Norse Culture Recreation and portray a craftsman and merchant. See my Bio page for more. This blog is primarily about my arts, crafts and experimental archeology projects but I may occasionally slip in a few words on Norse Culture, events I've been at, etc. I use norse names where available but for picture credits I give the real names. Those without credits are mine. Click on the pix to make them bigger.
