    Detroit Games 2009

    Today the Detroit Chapter of the St. Andrew Society is celebrating their 160th annual Highland Games. Here are a few piccies from this morning.
    A beautiful Michigan summer day, lightly cloudy, mild breeze. Warm but not hot.

    42nd Highlanders march onto the field.

    Excellent pics. Plus, you had great weather. I can hardly remember what the sun looks like anymore.
