    North Texas Irish Festival March 1-3

    It's almost time for the North Texas Irish Festival again. For those of you who haven't been, it is held at the Texas State Fair Park in south Dallas. The festival takes up several of the exhibition buildings with lots of live celtic, and celtic rock bands. There are vendors for food, kilts, clothing and jewelry as well just about anything else you can think of. There are workshops/lectures on various topics and last but not least there is the Scottish Clan Village (where you will find yours truly most of the time). So come out and enjoy the music, the beer and the fun.

    Waco is a long drive and Dallas is twice as far, but I hope I'll see you at the Texas Scottish Festival in May. We have definite plans to be there.

    Of course we will meet up. I wouldn't mind doing without the sheep this time....Drac.
    I haven't gotten the schedule of events, so hate to plan a meet up and then have to be in the clan parade at that time. Details should be posted soon, so check back.

    Still don't have the full schedule, but we certainly can plan on Saturday afternoon.
    I found out they are planning workshops this year. I'm hoping either I or my wife can make it a couple of the workshops. Maybe the xmarkers should look into doing a "picking and putting on the kilt" workshop next year?

    One week left? I have emailed one of the organizers to find out when the parade is scheduled. When I get a reply we can figure out when to meet up for a picture. Maybe at the Scotch tasting?

    Clan MacFarlane was next to Clan MacKay. Why didn't you join us for the photo?
