My family will be there. Nice venue. We also went last year for the first time. Found it to be one of the nicer games in the area.

I'll see you all (hopefully) there in a few hours. I have no dandelion, but I will have my Isle of Skye USAK casual.

Saw Madadh leaving as we were arriving, but couldn't remember what he was called. Saw two other guys with him, one of whom was wearing an XMarks kilt with a flat cap. Also saw a lady in XMarks tartan talking to them and ran into her later on - she told me that they were Morrisons, and I told her my user name.

We were there from about 3 until nearly six. We being me and my son. I was the one with the shirt that had a shamrock shaped Maryland flag on it, dressed all in green, caubeen, kilt, etc. I have long hair and a beard. My son is 18 and has long hair but is clean shaven and wears a flat cap (but not with a kilt, so it's OK, LOL!).

What is it we need to wear to be identified - a dandelion?

Sorry I missed you. I was there until 4pm with 2 of my daughters (I really need to order one of those dandelions). I also saw Madadh and friend (sorry - forgot his name already), and his Irish Wolfhounds. I also talked with Johnnie of the 93rd Highlanders and thought I saw SFCRick.

Great time!

I was there for a while, was having a bad back day so was gimping around on my cromach. Said hi to Madadh and did not realize I had run into Sir William at the porta john until later, saw others from a distance, but mobility was a pain, sorry if I missed anyone.

Sorry I missed some of you. I'm the guy in the Xmarks kilt and flat cap. This was the debut wearing of the Xmarks. We were there from 10-3. Enjoy a few photos. It is nice to put some real face to user & real names. We may try to swing up to the Frederick Celt Fest on 5/12.

Had a great time and enjoyed meeting with new friends and old. It was a great day and the lads enjoyed themselves, but were tuckkered out and are still recouperating. We will be at the Frederick County Celtic Festival on May 12th., with more wolfhounds so stop by and say high. Sorry I have no pictures to add, the lads said they posed enough.

Aye, nice to see X Marks member tkdog & family briefly at S. MD. Games. Was a pleasent enough day and the event was going great. I participated in the opening ceremony, but dodged hanging in camp all day and went off to watch a half hour of rugby (a shockingly competitive sport !), dropped in on acquaintences at Clan MacNaughton and Clan Wallace, some of the nicest folks I have ever met. Back to camp mid afternoon, made the multi period battle for the spectators at 4 p.m. and then made the closing ceremony. Then the rain hit about 5-ish & we packed up & bugged out.

Cheers, Johnnie, 93rd Highlanders, gov't sett 1800s pattern kilt w/1-inch box pleating made by Kerry McSwain in N.C, USA.
