    Missed Burns Night

    I was looking at the local news and founds out that I missed a local Burns Night gather by the St. Andrew's Society of NH.

    Oh well, maybe next year!


    Here is the link if you want to read the article.

    Burns Nicht...

    A very nice article, Will; I only wish I could get our local "fishwrap" to publish something that detailed about our Burns Supper!

    Are you familiar with these folks?

    I really like the Maine District Tartan, which is illustrated on the page -- it is the oldest district tartan in the United States (the Nova Scotia tartan is the oldest in North America).

    Cheers,

    Todd

    Todd,

    Glad you liked the article.

    I know about the Maine Highland Games. They are at least 1.5 hours away from me. I will keep an eye open about when their games are. I thing it is in Sept. Maybe I can make the trip.

    Maine Saint Andrew's Society...

    Will,

    It looks like there is a St. Andrew's Society in Maine; while you've probably missed their Burns Night, I wonder if they do other activities throughout the year; Tartan Day, for instance, is coming up in April.

    Cheers,

    Todd
