Utah Highland Games and Scottish Festival

[bricelythgoe]

I was also at the Highland Games that day. I think I missed the other x-markers because I went in the morning. Although the afternoon was kind of bad weather, it was perfect in the morning! It was overcast and the temperature was just right. It was not too cold nor to hot. I had a great time! It was really nice going to a place where other people wore kilts (up until now, I have been the only person wearing kilt wherever I am.)

I took some video of some of the things and I thought you guys might like to see it. First of all, sorry for the quality. It was my first time doing this with my digital camera. Wasn't sure how it would end up. First is the Mass Bands thing that happened at noon. All of the them got together to play:



Here is a good picture of the massed bands:



Here are a couple of videos of the caber toss event. One of the guys almost went back into the crowd, but he saved it:





Here is a picture of one of the highland games, but I do not know the name of it:



Right as we were about to leave, I thought I better take a picture of me by something that showed I was acctually there:



Overall, it was a great day! I had a great time. I had been waiting to go to one of these for 2 1/2 years. And as an added bonus, I found out they are starting a new on in the Cache Valley (north) this August. I can't wait!
