An article on the Gathering
In last weekends Toronto Star there was an article on the Gathering, my Aunt knowing I work the weekends saved the paper for me, I just found it online and thought some of you may want to read it so here is the link, enjoy

Interesting article, sounds like it will be a busy year ahead. In a way I wish we were going next year instead of the summer after. But on the otherhand missing the (probably) huge crowds will be nice too.

I just got back last July. I think I'll be happy not to get tangled in whatever logistical nightmare might result with so many in one location. Regardless, it will be a happening!

I am planning on going and am looking forward to it. I have been to Edinburgh before when it was fairly quiet and had a great time. Sort of looking forward to being there this time with a big crowd of people. The only thing that will keep me home is the awful direction our economy is headed. That better turn around or I may be inclined to keep my money in my pocket rather then spending a large sum on travel, lodging and such.

Good article. It looks like Scotland is going to have one heck of a party.
