    Kilt Night at the Queen's Head

    Well tonight was a kilt night at the Queen's Head, we had visitors from all over, Old Hippie was in from B.C., Dee and Ron were up from Virginia and the Saltire made it as well. We also had locals Uncle Ricky, Duchess of NC and myself. It was a good night and it was nice to reconnect with Dee and Ron and meet Charles.

    One thing about XMarkers that I've noticed over my time here is the sheer generosity that most show, we were given two more wedding presents tonight, so thank you again Charles, Dee and Ron for your cards and gifts they are greatly appreciated.

    Onto the photos

    The Saltire at the Queens Head, Charles was calling this one Blimp with single malt and beer or something like that


    Dee with an old friend


    Queen Victoria and the Saltire


    Dee did promise a toast to the NorCal Rabble so this was part of it.


    Charles (Old Hippie) and the wee airship


    Signing the log book


    Uncle Ricky with the Saltire


    This one is for Matt Newsome, two Carolina tartan Box Pleated kilts in Toronto


    The group shot


    Well that is about all the shots I got, Old Hippie it was a pleasure meeting you, and it was good to talk bikes all night. Dee and Ron it was great to see you again safe trip back, last but certainly not least it was good to see Uncle Ricky as well.

    I know there were other photos taken and they should be posted here soon I guess.
