    Dunsmuir House Games: Nor Cal Rabble

    http://www.dunsmuir.org/calendar.htm

    http://www.famplosion.com/events/786...Highland-Games

    Yours Truly as well as Charlie R. are throwing on Saturday (July 11th), going for some PR's in the Light Weight for Distance and Stones. If I make them, there will be much shouting, body language and taking of liberties with nearby lasses.

    The Games continue on Sunday the 12th. Tim_C and hopefully the Kilted Surveyor (Masters 40-49) will be throwing on Sunday, as will Elissa...Charlie's lovely lass and shy little Bethany Owen.

    There's a chance we'll be tossing the Sheaf, which you don't see in Nor Cal very often. We'll know more as the event gets closer, the weight over bar standards need to be adapted to reach the necessary height. Yours Truly is supplying the sheafs (and yes "sheafs" is the plural of sheaf, not "sheaves"!)

    I've never actually been to the Dunsmuir House Games, so we shall see....

    The Guild of St. Gyles Royal Lancers (The Royal Court of Mary, Queen of Scots) will be having a squiring ceremony and a REAL wedding on Saturday the 11th and the Lancers will be inspected and sworn in by Her Royal Majesty on Sunday afternoon at 4 pm. If you are in the area of the Living History come by and greet Her Majesty and do bring the littles to receive Queen's favors and have their picture taken.

    Can't make it this year. Hey Alan, when are you going to organize a return to the St. George Distillery?

    Best regards,

    I had visions of this being in Dunsmuir, California; up the hill from Redding. I have yet to make a games this year. Scooby is sounding reluctant at the moment but it is past his bedtime; perhaps I can convince him in another couple of days.
    Hopefully at least one of us will be in attendance.

    I have to consult with my lovely Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess but I believe we will all be there one of the days.

    Cheers

    Alas, I have to be in Santa Monica this weekend for a family funeral. Rats. No fun in the sun for me.
