Not quite a newbie but new to Oregon.

Greetings, Blueline (is that as in thin blue line?) Welcome to Xmarks. If you are close to Newport you should be able to locate a group in that area. I base that statement on the fact that Newport has a Highland Games in early summer (this year it will actually be in Toledo, some 7 miles from Newport). Gotta be some kilted folks in the area who organize that event.

I'll have to check into the Newport games. Yep the thin blue line.
