69 degrees, 50% chance of rain; rather good kilt weather for Florida.

I was there for Saturday.. (I've moved back to FL) They were pretty good, infact I was impressed. Their were good pipe bands ( I think about 8 bands), a good ratio of kilts. Some interesting vendors and presentations. Unfortunately the batteries in my camera died (even after charging them over night), so I didn't get the pictures I wanted to get. Their were a lot folks there for the size, especially since there was so many different attractions in the Bay area this past weekend.

Anyway, I'll give ****'s out of 5.

These games have gotten progressively better every year since they started. One notable improvement was in the beer; the first year, they set up a Budweiser truck () off of the premises, roped it off with yellow tape, and posted police guards at all four corners to ensure that no one escaped with a dreaded open container to the detriment of public morals and good order.
This year, they set up the Dunedin Brewery right behind the music tent, and turned a blind eye to open containers, as long as everyone behaved like gentlemen.
Sadly, I didn't play, as I'd my left arm in a sling, but it was still a good time, seeing many old friends, and making a few new ones.
