This was our first appearance at the LNHG, and the Mrs. and I thoroughly enjoyed it. While there were a couple of thousand people there, it wasn't crowded, the weather was perfect, plenty of clans, good vendors anxious to receive our hard-earned money, and a whole passel of X-Markers to meet and greet. The Mrs. got her birthday-, anniversary-, and end-of-first-year-of-grad-school presents today, in the form of the blouse, skirt, bodice, belt and necklace she bought from some of the vendors. I received several comliments on my red cabled hose, and gave out three dandelions. Thanks again, Mael Cluim, for sending those my way.
We then went to P. F. Chang's Chinese restaurant for supper, which was excellent, as usual, where we got several approving looks and a few questions about why we were dressed up.
I'll post some pics later, and put some of them into the "Lasses' Wear" thread.

I highly recommend the Loch Norman Highland Games to anyone who is beginning this journey.
