    The gent back row on the left (with the oak leaves in his bonnet) is eagle43172. It was really cool meeting everybody. Looking forward to Salado in November. (I wish more folks would wear plant badges! I wouldn't feel so alone.)

    One more thing...
    Was anyone else disappointed with the lack of "scottish" vendors at the "Scottish Festival"? If you wanted rain gutters, gypsie clothes, fantasy jewelry, "Lord of the Rings" style weaponry or utilikilts you were in luck. I was looking for a colored balmoral bonnet and none of the four scottish stores had one (or really much else.) What's the deal? You'd think a "scottish" fest would be more Scottish.

    Blast the color rendering on this monitor (shared workstation at work). Which tartan is Amy wearing? On this failing thing, it looks reddish purple with blueish purple and blueish white stripes.

    Looks like Scotland Forever to me




    but due to the resolution of the pic, I can't see whether the whit lines are single or double stripe.

    Going on the (reasonable, as it turned out) assumption that the tartan's name contained one of the words "pride", "heritage", or "spirit", I was able to locate it on the Scottish Tartan Register: Highland Spirit, woven by Marton Mills.
