Victory Ball!
Yes, I got into Regency costuming so that I could attend fancy balls. I'm not ashamed.

Regency Days at Fort Norfolk
This past weekend marked the bicentennial of the Battle of Craney Island, a little-known but strategically significant battle of the War of 1812. To commemorate the event, people from all over the state came for re-enactments, living history, authentic 1813-era church services, and a Victory Ball. I participated in much of this, though my involvement mainly consisted of wearing my Regency dresses and feeling pretty.
