Highland Games

[Scot]

The Highland Games in Ligonier (where RC started his ministry) are coming up soon. http://www.ligoniergames.org/

We'll be going like we do every year. Do any of you Scotsmen attend any sort of Scottish gatherings in your area?

The Virginia Scottish Games is coming up later this month. It is held annually in July in Alexandria, Virginia, a town with a rich Scottish history. I have enjoyed attending several times over the years. For more info, see http://www.vascottishgames.org/

Cheers!

I used to do the field events in T&F during HS and college. It's one thing to throw the discus, hammer or shot put in an official reg ring wearing athletic clothing ... it's quite something else to do that out in a field wearing a kilt.

I liked the 35lb weight throw too.

Was this before or after you took up the dangerous sport of duck feeding?

I was luring him into my trap. I grabbed him by the neck for the duck-toss.

After the duck toss, does the winner get to eat the duck?
