There was a group shot?
Unlike last year's games, I actually did (eventually) meet some Xmarkers this time: Wolfhawk, kscaddo, and medic78. I was looking for McMathTX and Jack Daw as well, but I don't think I saw them. Unfortunately, the fact that attworth would be wearing a Seaforth kilt somehow escaped me. I saw a Mackenzie kilt pleated to the white stripe shortly before I headed out. It caught my fancy, especially as I had seen so few kilts pleated to the stripe that day, and I almost said something to its wearer, but then thought better of it. 
I took quite a few pictures, but not nearly as many as last year, partly because the battery gave out. I'll be posting them today or tomorrow or, if not, Saturday or next week. (I'm going to be at Scout Camp at Possum Kingdom Lake from Wednesday to Friday.)

I didn't see it happen, but I recall hearing a roar from the audience around the north athletic field while I was hanging out at the Stewart tent. I imagine that's what caused it.
