    Pics from the Houston Highland Games & Celtic Festival - May 2009

    Here are some pics from the Houston Games taken and shared with me by a buddy:

    My clan tent. I am in the white piper's shirt and MacGregor kilt. TriolaMJ is standing in green (?) shirt and means that I will let anyone in my tent - even the Irish.


    Pony rides for the kids -


    It can be tiring chasing sheep -








    I like the Braemar stone toss -


    Celebrities never get any peace -


    BTW, I will be posting some pics I took at the Memphis Clanjamfry within the next few days. I was lazy at Estes Park (or more busy, you pick) and didn't take any pics at all despite having my camera.
