    Chicago Highland Games this weekend

    Are any of the Chicago Rabble attending this year?

    I will be there on Friday afternoon, but not on Saturday.

    Try a meetup at the Chisolm tent this year? Maybe Glen C will be staffing it?

    If you'll be there on Friday and would like to meet up, PM me and I'll send my mobile number.

    Hope to see some of you there!

    I'm going to try to come on Friday, but we'll see if I can get out of work in time.

    Intent is being there both days; last year it was a thorough joy, despite the 90+ heat high humidity, both days. Great music, food, beer, snacks, shopping, games, dance.

    Highest recommendation to all.

    James,
    Want to try meeting around 6 at the Chisolm tent?

    I'll be wearing the XMarks tartan.

    Trying to make it on Saturday...90 degrees, eh? Sounds like the usual...just worried about the rain...ask anybody who was there about that great Celtic Fest several years ago where it rained like a bastard the whole time...we all smelled like a herd of wet sheep...thank heavens for the Canadian hospitality tent where we took shelter!

    Look forward to seeing you guys.

    Best

    I'm going tomorrow with my dad and my fiance. =D I really hate that it's going to rain though. I'm bringing an umbrella.Question: Is it weird if I ask a man in a kilt for his picture? I mean, it's not like a Renaissance faire. I just really love guys in kilts!

    As I said on the other thread, on our way now. I'm a big guy and wearing my "Old School Scotland" tee, say hello if you see me.
