    Highland Gathering at Fair Hill, MD

    This weekend we went to the annual Highland Gathering in MD.
    Great food, music, dancing, and events. If anyone is within driving distance, this is a must to put on your calendar for next year.

    Here are some pics I snapped throughout the day.


    We love the athletic events. Unfortunately, there is so much going on at the same time we missed some other things we wanted to see. Seems to happen every year.

    Here is some Caber Tossing.
