    NEFL Games - 2/23

    The NorthEast Florida Games are Sat. 2/23 in Jacksonville, FL www.neflgames.com for all info.

    Sounds huge, and the whole day is capped off w/ a big ceilidh.

    Leading up to it, there are double decker bus pub crawls, kirkin', whisky tastings, etc.

    Any X-markers planning on being there? We should have a meet-up!

    So ... it's this weekend, lads.

    Weather forecast is high of 78, low of 52, with 40 percent chance of thundershowers.

    Anyone know a good place and time to meet?

    How will I know you, John?

    I'll likely be in my new Stillwater Standard Black Watch kilt, Lovat blue hose, Lovat-blue-ish shirt, and my oversized blue bonnet with either a MacFarlane or Munro clan crest pin on it.

    I was in the "C" Division, I wore a Frugal Corner 16oz Black Stewart and a New World Celt T-shirt. Also I have a full Beard now.

    Well, I ended up completely missing the athletics.

    I've found that if you're involved in one of the "events" taking place, you almost never get more than a glimpse of the other events. I saw plenty of pipes, though.

    Sorry I missed you again, as I did at Orlando ...
