    Yes, I & the family will be attending (I missed the last two years due to health issues). I won't be kilted (the budget BW doesn't fit anymore, and I'm awaiting a Newsome hand sewn box pleat). I'll be spending part of the day (probably Saturday the 05th) hanging out at the Clan Donald booth, otherwise wandering about (something I haven't been able to do in the years prior as I was a commissioner for another clan).

    Say Hi to Rod MacKenzie at the Clan MacKenzie tent for us. We won't be there, but wish we could.

    I'll probably be wearing my SWK Leatherneck. My daughter will more than likely be in the beergarden, and I will be roaming about.

    You'd be correct Alex

    Bellingham in Washington State, just south of the US/Canadian border (& Vancouver BC).

    We would love to have you anyways!

    Sorry to hear it, but I completely understand. I missed the past two years because of health & financial reasons.

    I plan to be there Saturday with the wife & daughter. I know that for about an hour after the clan parade I'll be assisting at the Clan Donald booth. After that I'll be wandering about.

    I'll be wearing my WPG Tam:


    See y'all there
