Highland Games :o)

Being of Scottish / Irish lineage we take every opportunity to enjoy our heritage. And we get lots of chances here.  Saturday we did a first, we took the train to the games that are a 2 hour drive. It took longer, but was far more fun.

 

The Train Station, hard to see but Drew's in his kilt

                                          

 

 Here's Drew learning how to toss a caber. My "big strong man" used a  15 pound caber!! (sorry it's sideways)   

                                                                                             

The winning toss.  :o)  Beth competed in the 12-17 yr old caber toss. She won 1st place with a 2.8 meter throw with full roll over (it went end over end).
