| |  Houston, Burns' 250th Dedication
Here in Houston there is a bust of Robert Burns (along with other notables) in the rose garden of Hermann Park our big downtown park and rec area. The bust was erected by the Houston Heather and Thistle Society 5 years ago, and they have a ceremony there on the Sunday following their Burns Supper.  
After we got the flags up 
Folks gather... Tourists look on,,

Group shots, I'm sporting my new flatcap from USA Kilts..
