    Good to meet a few friendly XMarks faces at the Harp tent. It was a shame I had to dash off to attend to my Clan duties back at the tent, but it was good to have a few XMarks folks stop by for a wee sweetie or two (won't mention names, but a passion for licorice All Sorts is involved!)

    Sunday's deluge was merely a minor setback. As one of the local Games here in the Charlotte area always mentions in their programs "There is no such thing as bad weather, just poor choices in clothing" It gave my partner and I chance to have a bit of lunch and a few nips of the water of life. OK, a lot of nips.

    Looking forward to the Foothill and Waxhaw Games later this year!
    It was great to meet you, Mr. Mayor. My family felt very welcomed by the citizens of MacVillage on our first visit and plan to make a full week out of it next year. I'm trying to design a tent platform to span the drainage area we camped on. Wilson said we have to camp there next year too.

    You got that right! I was there early saturday and you only had a workmans in my size. Maybe a little feedback to UK wouldn't hurt.


    Sorry I missed all the scheduled gatherings of x-markers. $h!T happened.

    Where 4 Scotsmen gather there'll usually be a fifth.
