As we are a kilted clan,
I have always found it amusing the number of vendors of items associated with Scotland at the local Irish festival. Haggis and kilts, and the bucket shops of genealogy for the clan septs and "arms". Including one year of Highland Games demonstrations and competition.
The New Hampshire Highland Games did an excellent job of putting together an event that was predominately Scottish. Most of the Celtic performers did their Scottish material with very little of the Irish showing. The vendors were all Scottish oriented, and the event was special in that nature. As a member of NHScot, (the sponsor) I can well appreciate the work it takes to schedule all the factions that it takes to get the games to happen.
I have the mix of ancestry by way of Ulster to my Scot roots. Happily Scot-Irish-Dutch-German-French-American MUTT.
