    I, the lovely Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess, and our two kilted kids will be there!

    I will be dancing in one of the Medleys of the Red Thistle Dancer shows.

    Cheers

    I'll be looking for folks around the Red Thistle Dancers at 12:30. Alan had a schedule in an earlier post, but nothing "official" is on the site.

    Cool

    Some photos from Ardenwood Tartan Day/Scottish Festival. Sorry, iPhone 3 photos, not great. Also a couple didn't seem to actually take and I can't get one of Jamie dancing off my camera...we had fun at this low-key event. Nice to meet the real people from XMarks.

    Missed Sailortats somehow, but it was good seeing you there -- and Alan, and Brooke & Connie, and Jamie & Star!

    I had a great time. It was nice finally meeting some of the xmarkers. I was afraid I wouldn't know who was who, and I didn't, but people seemed to recognize me (wonder why that is?) and introduced themselves. Sorry to have missed you Dale.
    Thanks for the pics Cal. Highlander, they are great.
