Clear Lake Celtic Festival - Highland Games
I got out there late because I didn't realize they had any games going on but here's a few I did get that were somewhat worth showing.

Cool pictures. I love seeing this sort of stuff.
That wasn't a 56# weight was it? Looked a little small.
.. the kilt had concealed a blaster strapped to one thigh and a knife to the other. He was aware of the present gentle customs against personal weapons, but he felt naked without them. Such customs were nonsense anyhow, foolishment from old women - there was no such thing as "dangerous weapons," only dangerous people.

I didn't pick it up myself, but looking at the trouble they were having with it, I'm thinking it probably was.

Those are good pictures I hope you enjoyed what little time you had at the games. At least you will be prepared next year.

Excellent pics - its always difficult to capture action shots such as weights over the bar or caber tossing.
