First official 501st troop: St. Jude walk/run to end childhood cancer. We were invited by "Mateo's Jedi Warriors" and helped congratulate everyone as they finished the 5k. Of course, several things broke, including 2 collar studs, my left gauntlet, and a boot spike. Had a great time, though!

Last Jedi weekend.

This was my original goal when I got serious in 2015: to be in costume at the premiere of a new Star Wars movie. Glad it finally happened, even if it was two movies later than I expected! Bring on Solo!
 
During my last troop, one of my harness straps busted loose, and I didn't get around to fixing it for a while. Finally got it sewn back together, so here's my latest outing in the suit: Star Wars and STEM Day at a local library.
