    Stone Mountain Highland Games Oct 14-16

    Well, they'll be here before you know it, so we better start planning.

    I would like to invite the rabble and rabblettes to Conyers on Friday evening before the big event for another little get together at the Celtic Tavern, our usual watering hole for other events.

    I hope to meet up with the attendees on Saturday, so who's coming?

    This year, I'm making sure to schedule all other competing events around the games.

    BTW: Conyers is very close to Stone Mountain, so give us a look.

    Was fully planning on being there, but unfortunately have to attend a conflicting business meeting in Chicago, so unless the group wants to relocate to Chicago for the evening I am out. Y'all have a grand time, and I will be wishing I were there with you every moment of my meetings that weekend. Might slip into a kilt for part of them just to feel a smidge of the camaraderie I will be missing, especially my own Clan Forrester's home games, tent and gathering. Next year, I hope.

    Not sure yet how things are going to work out. I do want to come up and join in all the good times. Will have to wait a little longer for the things here at home to work out. Keeping the fingers crossed. Be well and be blessed Brother!

    The STM crew will be there as always, but we'll be too busy setting up for a meet up. Sounds like fun, though. And please come by our tent and the games and say hi!

    My brother Harry and I will be attending for our first time and will be hanging out at the Kennedy Tent. However will be attending the Welcoming Reception Friday night so sadly we will not be able to make the meet up.

    Although Lord Ailsa Chief of Clan Kennedy can not make it his daughter Lady Rosemary will be attending in his place. This will be her first time at Stone Mountain and I not sure but I believe it is her first time coming to the US.

    So please stop buy and say hello.

    My wife and I may be in attendance - not entirely sure just yet. We would love to be there, as we've never been!

    Hey Jim,
    I will be at the games with the band, so not sure what my schedule will allow. I will a try to make it to the meet ups. I am sure I will bump into you somewhere along the way. If I can make the Friday night event in Conyers I will, it just depends on my work schedule.

    The Mrs. and I plan to be at the Games on Saturday. Any place for a meet-up planned?

    When given a choice, most people will choose.
