The Jousting Life website was officially launched on February 12, 2012. Today is The Jousting Life's third anniversary.
During that first February back in 2012, The Jousting Life website received a total of 697 pageviews. Now, the website can get that many pageviews in a single day, and it's continuing to grow. To the jousters, tournament organizers, photographers, videographers and all the others who share with me the information, photos and videos that I use to create articles for The Jousting Life, and to all of you who read those articles and share them with your friends:
Without all of you, The Jousting Life could not be what it is today.
To celebrate this anniversary, I thought I'd share a picture from the first joust I ever photographed back in 2008.

And a photo from the first jousting tournament I reported on for The Jousting Life in 2012.

Hopefully, I will be able to report on many more jousting tournaments in the years to come.
