Mike, sounds like the Quaich had a good time in Maine, but all I see are little x's where the pictures should be.

Seriously though, it's great to share in its continued adventures, once you have hosted it the memory is always with you.

On Friday, January 10 th I accompanied the Quaich to a pub night with my friends from the Maine Public Safety Pipe & Drum Corps at Byrnes Irish Tavern in Brunswick. Once again it was put to good use prompting an impromptu performance by one of the Pipers and a bit of a song fest by the rest of us. As the night also coincided with a Guinness promotion I had to take the opportunity to get a photo with one of the lovely Guinness Girls!

On Saturday the Quaich and I were headed to the Winter West Festival in Westbrook. Unfortunately the weather did not cooperate (a common occurrence in Maine) and a little too much winter weather in the form of ice and freezing rain forced the cancellation of many of the events including the dogsled races which are always great fun.
The Quaich is now heading to Virginia where Ern will host its next adventures. Hopefully it can make its way back to Maine sometime, perhaps during summer (which is generally between July 25 th and August 10 th) when we can get some nice scenic “tourist” photos with it!
Thanks for the opportunity, it was fun hosting it!
Anyone know why I can't see the pictures?

I'm seeing them fine, Allen, and others are commenting on them; could it be a computer setting? Are you seeing pictures in other threads?

Bill, yes I can see pictures in other threads, just like Downunder Kilt. Curious....

"Curiouser and curiouser," said Alice. I have no ideas for you under those circumstances. Sorry.
