| | | SOKS Burns Night at the Scottish Rite Hamilton
Well it was a wonderful Burns Night at the Scottish Rite in Hamilton, and as always the Reverend Kevin was a gracious host. Here are the photos I got, I'm sure there will be more from the others as there were many flash bulbs going off
The Bard himself: 
Our Table: 
Hendry, Wompet and Mexpiper: 
Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face,
Great chieftain o' the pudding-race!
Aboon them a' yet tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Captain the Reverend Donald Gordon Glennie doing the Address to the Haggis: 
Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware
That jaups in luggies;
But, if ye wish her gratefu' prayer
Gie her a haggis!

The room is gorgeous, the food look delicious, the guests look impeccable, and the band looks great. What a truly marvelous Burns Supper.

A few more 
Krista and Cathy, you never know who you'll meet at a Hunting McLeod show: 
Those are about all the photos I have of the first annual Burns Night, it was a great night I am sure it was enjoyed by all, I know I loved it, Reverend Donald Gordon Glennie did a wonderful job with the Address to the Haggis, and all the songs were wonderful, to top it off the Hunting McLeod show was excellent.
