    I assume the tent will be set-up as in years past with the "stage end" closest to the parade grounds and closed off. The other/far end is the entrance and whole side/end is open. The tent also is set up on the pavement closest to and running perpendicular to the base of the mountains with the vendor/clan tents on the other side.

    May I suggest meeting on the "open end" & "mountain-side"?

    I will try and make it there at 11 on Friday but I can’t promise it. My wife is recovering from ankle surgery and has limited mobility. One event she wanted to see (and always seems to miss) is the sheep herding trials which are taking place at the same time at the athletic fields. If she doesn't mind me "leaving" her there or has someone else who wants to watch with her --- I'll be there at 11 on Friday. If not, we both may make it over for Albannach at noon.

    Regardless, the "open-end/mountain-side" of "The Loon Mountain Concert Tent" seems to be a good spot to try and meet though-out the week-end.

    I have tickets for the Sat Noon Whiskey tasting so will probably be there for Albannach before (10:45) and Glengarry Bhoys after (3:00).

    Just look for the two toeheads (ages 5 and 2) with the Irish Natl tartan kilts and their "much larger" dad who may, or may not, wearing his matching kilt.

    Works for me. I'll be in the Black Casual Kilt and combat boots!
    I like a nice short parade that ends at a bar.
