Yesterday in Monterey CA it was a beautiful 60 degrees, perfect weather for a Highland Games.
As my family all had other plans I went solo for a relaxing day
I know most people enjoy the caber toss most out of all the highland events, but my favorite is the hammer throw. I spent the first part of my day watching the masters division throw heavy and light hammer

My friends (and fellow X Markers) Alan and Roger were competing. I took some neat videos of the two of them throwing hammer, sadly my efforts to put them here don't seem to be working...oh well Here are a couple of photos
Here are a few photos of them doing the sheaf toss
There was a fun sheep dog demonstration with one very happy dog herding both sheep and ducks (for the record the ducks seemed a lot smarter)
One more set to come
