    I checked out their web site. 12 vendors, no mention of massed bands, two sessions of children's games, bonnie knees contest, Rathkeltair, Ed Miller, country dancers, and several other things. It sounds like a little games, but I'm discovering that smaller events can be more fun than larger events. We might get there. I'll be wearing my dandelion!

    I was planning on being in Charlotte this weekend, anyway, so I might just make it too. I may be dressed like a girl, though - my kilts are still bearing the mud from this past weekend in Gatlinburg. Since the introduction of a healthy dose of Weed-B-Gone on my lawn, I shant be wearing a Dandelion.

    Definitely be worth the ride to see Rathkeltair - it's always great to see them live. Neil is such a good show man.

    And why is this a reason for not wearing your kilt? It ought to be dry by now. Just take a stiff brush and then a damp cloth. And no, I haven't cleaned mine yet. I've still got a week and a half before I need it again.

    FREEDOM!!

    Y'all have fun!

    He could tell people that his kilt is woven in the "weathered" colors. Either that or it's the "mudded" tartan.
