Cheers from NH!
Hello all, my name is Chris from NH. I actually found this site while doing research, as I am interested in buying my first kilt!
My roots are from Quebec and Scotland (so I guess that makes me Nova Scotia haha). My great-grandfather was from Aberfeldy, Perth and Kinross, Scotland... a Caskie, which makes me a MacLeod (of Lewis). Growing up, my mom and my grandparents talked quite a bit about my Scottish great-grandfather. I grew up listening to fiddle and pipe music. I've been to the NH Highland Games 3 times, and since this year's, I have really taken an interest in reading about my Scottish heritage and the culture. I think this will be a great site to further my 'education'. I've also been brushing up on my chops and hope to maybe join the NH Pipes & Drums this year as a pipe drummer.
Anyways glad to have stumbled upon this site! Regards.

Welcome from the highlands of Central Massachusetts. I probably saw you at Loon as I have been there too these past few. Are you Southern, Central or Northern NH?
