Highland Festival


What's the difference between a bagpipe and an onion?

No one ever cries when you chop up a bagpipe.

Long live the Keith and the Douglas clans!

I'm a Scottish Mutt

I used to go to this every year, but dang it is spendy. Although a Scotch Egg and a wee bit of Pie does sound good.

And when the pipers start strangling the cats.... Aye, it sounds good.

Yeah, the crowds are getting ridiculous. Mostly flatland tourons with no clue.

I found out real quick that a fifth will fit perfectly in a Sigg bottle.

"Why in Gawds name would you put red stuff in yer beer? Ya know your not supposed to see through beer? Damm watered down Porter" hehehe

One of the best times I had with him ,was at the Celtic Fest in Hunter NY.

My 2 Grandfathers hardly got along,,,Eriemen {O'Cassady}and a Scottsman {Hoyt/Lindsay}
You know the story of the Orange and the Green?

[SA Friday]

Is this the shin-dig up in Estes this weekend? If so, my wife will be up there with our son. She's traced her Campbell lineage back to Ireland in the 1700's and is trying to find the link from there back to Scottland. All of the Ireland Campbells came from Scotland, but she can't find the lineage link. There's supposed to be a Campbell clan group there, and she's hoping it can get her further back in the lineage.

Ya, sometimes I wonder what I was thinking... I'm mostly Norwegian and Hessian (Northern Germany) and my wife is Scotch Irish. I have a temper flash point of -20 degrees, and my wife just stews for 6 months and then goes off like a nuclear detonation. Seems to really confuse the kids .
