It was good to meet you and the wife. Sorry I was so swamped I could barely say hi! It was a constant flow of people in and out the museum all day.

And I guarantee that Pam was not the only other Kincaid there! I had numerous people asking about Kincaid items in the store today. One young lady bought about every Kincaid item I had pretty early in the morning, leaving the rest of your clan dissapointed!

Thanks, Matt. As there are a lot of us in the Burke-Caldwell County area due to old John "the Patriarch" Kincaid settling in Burke County in 1752, I not terribly surprised that there may heve been a few around today! I did hear someone in the crowd exclaim: "Look! Kincaids!" as we marched in the parade. I guess that the three of us were the only ones there in the clan tartan. And, thanks for the loan of the banner! I only wish that I could have gotten a picture of us as we marched, to forward to the clan chief.

Looks like a fine time was had by all. Nice tartan that Kincaid. Nice to see that R65 still in service, too.

Regards,
Scott Gilmore

Not too shabby for an '82, huh?!

Loks like a great time. How was the weather? It was pretty hot at the Chicago Games today (will post on that and some pics later), topping 90.

That is a great cycle/sidecar combo! I want one! Must have been an enjoyable trip up to Franklin.

Bright sunshine + high humidity = sticky hot! Not a lot of vendors with merchandise in the clan/tartan category, so the museum gift shop stayed crowded- I don't think Matt even had time to scratch!
