Memories

My memories of the Investiture Prince Gregory and Princess Vivian

The event was held outdoors, at night, in a courtyard in San Diego. In an effort to add more "pomp and circumstance," Lord Ioannes Leckie, who was very devoted to the study of pre-16th century protocol and ritual, had assembled an entourage to escort Their Highnesses by torchlight. Unfortunately, the torches were, as I recall, covered orange juice cans placed atop long poles and filled with lighter fluid, which presented something of a fire hazard. It was either then-Lord Cameron of Caldoon, attired in powder blue with matching tights (but no shoes), or then-Mistress Bevin Fraser of Stirling (or maybe both together) who managed to talk them out of actually LIGHTING the "torches."

I also take this opportunity to apologize for helping propagate the "of happy memory" litany that plagues our courts when the Order of the Dolphin is given!
