Sorry we couldn't make it this year. It finally was scheduled at the time of the Spokane Highland Games and we were the chieftains. Also we had a Dougie MacLean concert on Sunday. It looks like it is great fun. Hello to Mike of Dayton, Xman, Steve and Barb.

What a BEAUTIFUL tartan Steve, well done! The colors are a perfect representation of the Dress Blues. That will be one handsome kilt.
KiltedKnome, what great pics to allow those of us not there to be a part of the Kamp without the hard work, but then we don't end up with a new kilt. I see some wonderful tartans being worked on.

Steve introduced the Quaich and the logbook (the Quaich will start travelling again, soon, heading East.....Barb has said if we get it to her by December, she will take it to Egypt!)
