    Rabble at the Salado Highland Gathering


    I posted this on the original thread for the meet up, but figured others might want to see it and not go to other thread, so here it is. A good group if I say so my self. Some I know by handle and others by name.
    Top row: Me (B.D), Terry and Tobie
    Lower row: Ken, Craig, Dave, Joe, Super 8 mm, Steve and Shawn. Jerry (Kiltboy) was also there but missed the picture.
    Others took pictures too, so maybe more following.

    Thank goodness we didn't have gusty winds like we have the last couple of years!

    I did notice a big increase in the number of jackets/waistcoats being worn this year, not only with the XMTS crowd, but in general. It seems like the kilted attendees to this event are trending more towards the traditional.

    Steve, if you are reading this, congratulations again on your upcoming nuptials! I was going to visit with you before I left, but you were busy.

    Does anybody know how we can politely suggest to the organisers that they include a vendor next year who carries some Scottish food? And maybe a wider beer selection? I can eat corn dogs and BBQ any day of the week.

    Hey, Tobe!

    Thank you! Andrea is a real gem of a girl! (and, to boot, she's a MacCallum, a Campbell, and a Blair) I'm not sure of the appropriate contact, but you might start with Frank Leslie, who organized the clans. Here's the webby contact page:

    I talked with Frank Leslie and he is aware of the food comments, and will be searching for a vendor.
