North Texas Scottish Festival

[LordKiltClad]

Sorry I'm late posting. I was out on Saturday from about noon until just after 3pm.
The large tent near the clan tents is where I started. I walked into the tent to find our very own RowdyRed up on stage as one of three bachelorettes competing to win a date with a big muscle bound caber tosser. Dating game style, the bachelor asked questions to 3 ladies from the other side of a curtain. Red's answer were a little more risque than the other ladies (Red had been drinking already), and she wasn't picked. Oh well. Then I was hanging out at the MacPherson tent for awhile with RowdyRed, Margo, and her husband before they all went to the country dance workshop. During the workshop I was over getting a bite to eat, and hanging out with Lambda for a short while in the NTCP&D area.

Jim Walters (owner of the Caledonian Kitchen) is buddy of mine, and lives about a 1/2 mile north of me. He supplies the haggis to our Boy Scout group for our annual burns night. I always end up buying something from him every time he sets up at a festival. Of course besides the store in Grapevine, I'll order from him and pick it up at his house.

If you were there Friday night, the Scouts in green shirts and kilts are in the same unit as me. We awarded a prestigious Masonic youth award to one of our members Friday night as well.

Well, shoot - you could have always stopped by the Scottish Country Dancers tent - there are several of us X-Markers there or Clan MacPherson...(last few events I mentioned where DFW X-Markers always gather - guess I failed to re-highlight prior to the Games.) Gaw, Cynthia - I KNEW you would find us

Fact, I even broke my banjo out and we had a small celtic hootenanny. So sorry you missed that! But Lambsa and Lord KiltClad and Kilted Animal came by. Ronusan and gf were awesome at trying out SCD. (hope ya'll had fun or at least gf let you buy a sword or something after that.)

And yes, I made an appearance on the bachelorette game. You know if I had not been up there it would have been boring as heck (did you hear some of the answers? Snooze-a-rama!)- besides, I was just trying to live up to my name!!
