    Flagstaff, Arizona events

    Hey all,

    Three events are coming up in Flagstaff that cry out for kilts. We're having a pipe jam on September 24, a Celtic Halloween party on October 29, and a kilted limbo contest November 11 (to celebrate Glenfiddich's new rum finished whisky). You can get more info at http://www.nachs.info/whatsnew.asp if you are interested.

    If I'm really lucky my first kilt might arrive on September 22, which means the pipe jam will be my first time out in my own kilt!

    I sure wish I could make those events. I really really enjoyed our week in Flagstaff a couple of months ago... We were there for the games in July...

    I can't believe I discovered X Marks after our Celtic Festival. It seems like a third of the members were there - a missed opportunity for me. Next year I am being put in charge of all educational activities, so if any of you are there, be sure to stop by the Celtic plant and geology tent, or the workshop area, and ask for Todd. Maybe we could have a whole X Marks contingent go out to the Satruday ceilidh!

    Hey Todd,

    Sure is a temptation to head south, but the Sunday night schedule is rough... its 2 1/2 hours to get back home and only fools drive Highway 89 across the reservation at night....okay I've done it too.

    Will be in town Oct 7th...my lady has a hair appointment and I have a new tattoo appointment...but we head back on Sunday.

    For sure big gathering at next years games there. Your idea of a focus point sure beats the "sure I can find them" attitude I had this year...I turned out to be dead wrong on my people finding skills at the games.

    Was a very successful shopper though!

    Yeah I think we all underestimated each other's ability to blend in eh Ron? I was a successful shopper too. Any time you leave with a new kilt is a success. So, you finally getting a tattoo from Patrick? That's good... good indeed. You'll have to post us a picture. I'd like to make it to next year's games. It'd be a great time. Nikki really liked Flag a lot, so it may not take too awful much to convince her to go again.

    Aye,

    Finally got an appointment set with Patrick. Just gonna be small crossed rock hammers to commerate my time as a sample boy deep in the bowels of the San Juan Mountains back in 1963.

    If he's as good as I hope then next will be a clan crest.
