    2012 Maine Highland Games

    Here are some pictures from today's Maine Highland Games at the Topsham Fair Grounds. The rain ended this morning in time for the opening ceremonies and the sun actually tried to come out by the afternoon. It was nice to meet a couple of X Marks members there.

    Opening Ceremonies:

    Athletics:

    Highland Games make me happy... I love the lobster kilt! She's pleated it so the design is intact. Awesome.

    Hey Scout!,

    Thank you very much for posting your pictures!!! Great to see! Teri (Tartan Tess) is a dear dear kiltmaking friend so if you still have questions about pleating to stripe, she's a lot closer. And I know she can answer all your questions.

    Good to see you at the games. I apologize for always looking the same in all these games photos. But that's my "uniform" when I'm working the Clan tent. I'll have to put some thought into getting more creative.
