    After the Games

    It has been my honour and pleasure to host Cessna152towser on his visit to New England. We welcomed him with a kilt night and then a day in Boston, including a ride on the M.B.T.A. That night he was transported to Lincoln, New Hampshire, moved into his timeshare, set up on the internet, fed dinner and stocked the larder.


    Here he is having a hard time deciding which event to go to next.


    Sunday after the games we drove directly to Boston, and stopped for dinner at The Haven. When we entered, we were met by this group of people that have one thing in common..... They are all Scots. Some in the U.S. on business, some going to school, and one as proprietor of the pub.

    Alex did get some friendly jibes about his bumbag sporran. I got some for not having my sgian dubh, and had to go back to the car for it.
    After a short dinner, Alex was transported to the airport hotel, so as to be ready for a very early flight back to Heathrow.

    Great job Steve.
    The photos of the whole week were very fun. Sorry I didn't get to meet some of you at the games, but I was working or goofing or taking in the seminars.Thanks
