High noon on Saturday, group pic anyone?

Meet at the Scottish Tartan Authority (STA) Tartan Information tent, usually located just inside the main entrance.
(Edited To Add): I just checked the tent assignments and the field map. Just inside the main gate, the first two tents on your left (X1 and X2) are COSCA and STA.

I saw Doc MacBean Sunday and told him I finally remembered cottage is the tiny building I was talking about Saturday. Appalachia, please pass this on to your friend who shared the expensive and tasty single malt with us. More Xmarkers at Clan Sinclair,
(L-R) @Mael Coluim, @Appalachia, @ASinclair, @Doc MacBean, and @carolinanan117.
Note: In USA, we go on vacation. In Canada, they go cottaging. Cottaging has a different meaning in UK.

Cottaging
"Note: In USA, we go on vacation. In Canada, they go cottaging. Cottaging has a different meaning in UK."
I think it must depend where in Canada you are. I have never heard of the expression.
Cheers....

My Canadian friend is in Toronto. Maybe it's an Eastern thing.

Thanks so much for sharing those photos!
It's been a long time since I've been to Grandfather Mountain. My mother used to live in Elizabethton (near Johnson City) and on my annual visits I'd pop over for a day at the Games. That would have been in the 1980s.
Appalachia I like your style.
Allen it would be great to hang out with you again! (We met at Loch Norman).
