Used to do CW reenacting & before that I did the buckskinning thing. Have allways loved blackpower & shooting them. Lost my leg in an accident in 2002. CW was out ... not so sure about riding a horse with one leg as I was used to training them to knee rein...can only go in one diretion now (one knee)...can't do infantry....too much walking over uneven groung...though about artillery ...got a price shock when I figured up what it would cost for a team of horses to pull a 9 pounder field piece & the casson...not to mention the price of the 9 pounder & casson.
When I lost my leg the Dr. wouldn't send me as fast as I wanted to get a prostesis so a buddy (who owns a woodworking shop) & me built my pegleg. Walked into the Dr.s wearing it & the Dr. allmost had a fit! He sent me to have my first leg built after that.
Anyway to make a looooong story short ... one of my grandsons had a 4th pirate birthday party & my Daughter asked if I still had the peg. Had to attach an ols prostetic socket to it but now I can walk with it as well as I walk with the prostesis. Had a blast doing it & looked around & found a Crew. Love it more than all the other reenacting I've done.
