Xmarkers gather in Glasgow...Kentucky

[HeathBar]

Four Xmarkers gather for a photo on the first day of the games.

HeathBar, JSFMACJR, Skyekilt, and KiltedSurveyor.

Here is Skyekilt and KiltedSurveyor having a deep conversation. I think they were discussing leather for sporrans.


This is a view from outside the tent. The green banner is JSFMACJR's. We were set up next to the Society of Scottish Armigers. I always enjoy looking at the different colorful heraldic banners.


I didn't get a whole lot of other photos. It was really hot on Saturday and I was happy to sit in the shade of the tent. Sunday was much nicer, even had a spot of rain late morning.
On Sunday, following the closing ceremony, an ash spreading ceremony took place. A true patron of the games at Glasgow and most other games across the southeast, Mad Max MacDougald, passed away last January. His ashes were spread to the four corners of the field. Mad Max always had a good time and enjoyed getting kids involved. His enthusiasm will be missed.
