Hello Mael Coluim, great shots from Virginia Scottish games, the band shots
are very good.

Here are some of my pictures from the VA Scottish Games. When I linked up with Malcolm on Saturday, I was there with my parents. After recently having knee surgury, I wasn't sure I was up to wearing my kilt. However, Sunday I took my Boy Scout Troop (I'm the Assistant Scout Master) for some cultural education and fun. This time, I knew I couldn't get away with not wearing the kilt. I created a scavenger hunt for the boys which made them get out and experience as much as possible. Some of them actually found their names in the Clan Sept lists and they were allowed to participate in the Parade of Tartans. They also enjoyed the music and food. Overall we had a great time.

Here are a couple of mine from Sunday. Just one of the boys and I went back, but I convinced him to wear the SWK I got them.

Before we headed out.


The car show was better on Sunday. There were a lot more earlier, but I didn't take pictures. Went back later and took a few pics of what was left.

A Morgan.


A replica Cobra.


A couple MGs.


A Jaguar.


The interior of the Jag, beautiful.


Finally, the highland warrior.

Great photos. It looks like it was a great weekend.

The Morgan reminds me of "The Phoenix" a Plus 8 that was rebuilt after being almost completely destroyed in an accident and fire in 2002. Although the paint color seems to be darker than I remember.
