    My family wanted to go see some of the farm animals kept at Hovander. Unfortunately most of the critters (pigs, sheep, goats, etc) were gone!?! All to be seen were the barnyard fowl.

    This big ol' tom was one mean, territorial bird!

    I told him to behave or he'd end up on our dinner table!! ( )

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

    Wow, these are truly brilliant photos. Some great action shots, especially of the heavy competitors. The thing which strikes me about this is that although these photos are from an area of the USA which I have never visited, there are quite a few "weel kent faces" there. I have seen those three Canadian bands from British Columbia perform, New Westminster Police Pipe Band, Dowco Triumph Street Pipe Band and Simon Fraser University Pipe Band. In fact the Simon Fraser PB returned from Scotland to Vancouver on the same flight I was on last August. I have seen the Wicked Tickers perform, and I have met Old Hiker when he was over here in Scotland. I think I would have enjoyed these games!
