Fredericksburg Welsh Festival

[Mael Coluim]

I spied another kiltie and found out it he was the President of Welsh Society, Bob Roser. He also played the pipes with the band, Moch Pryderi and was a Welsh Folk dancer. His tartan is St. David. I told him mine was St. Patrick and he replied that Patrick was a Welshman that had been enslaved by the Irish. How interesting. I knew Patrick was a Briton, but didn’t realize he was Welsh.

The inFamous Welsh Cookies tent. My wife had given me orders to bring back lots!

Moch Pryderi is a great folk music band. I really enjoyed them.

The Welsh folk dancing was well performed.

I know several of the Rabble are Masons. I snapped this photo of the Masonic graveyard behind the museum.

The Welsh say he was from Wales. The Scots claim he was from Strathclyde. :-)

I don't think there is enough evidence to say for sure where in Britain he was from.

I think a lot of historical religious figures are mistakabley claimed by one nationality or another. Although St. George was Turkish, wasnt he?

great pics by the way Ern!
