About two months ago I lost access to my account. I thought it was deleted, but then about a month later it spontaneously returned. So most likely it was some kind of malfunction that tumblr took a lot of time to fix. Who knows.
Anyway the truth of the matter is that I really didn't care that much. My interests have changed and I was getting bored with the content I had posted. I was posting antique firearms, then antique arms and armor in general. But my interests had shifted away from such topics and on to others. That is why I created treasures-of-the-ancients. Blogging was beginning to become a chore with peashooter85.
So I have decided to let peashooter85 die. I will no longer be posting here.
I have a new blog called @memories-of-ancients. It deals mostly with ancient and medieval history, the pre-modern era, and a little bit of the 18th century up to the Napoleonic Wars, and maybe some assorted modern history that really catches my eye.
I also have @peashooter-invictus which operates as a personal blog, which will have some assorted history and antiques, but mostly is just me reblogging cat pics.
Best,
Peashooter

By December ther ships had reached such an eypanse of ice that they could see no end to it and sailed along its edge for two days.
