Wish I could of Been there but a charity walk in Aberdeen then the drive to Delaplane I think would've killed me. I'm sorry I had to miss it.

Looks like a fun time. Glad to see the weather held out for the games.

I couldn't make it up there, but I will definitely be at the Williamsburg Scottish festival. I have already purchased my tickets and made a room reservation for Saturday night .Maybe we can all put together a meet at the festival and perhaps a kilt night Saturday after the festival. Maybe, some of our tidewater or Williamsburg members know of a place in Williamsburg.

Sorry, I couldn't make it on Saturday, but here are my pics from today. Wished I could have come yesterday. It was VERY hot today, and I think I lost a couple pounds just sweating. But all in all, it was a great festival. Quality vendors and great music were the norm. Can't wait to go back next year. Next up Williamsburg, who's going?

Here's my pic with Brad from TKN.
