First Annual Ithaca NY Highland Games

[McMurdo]

Yesterday was the First Annual Games in Ithaca NY, I decided to take the drive down and see what it was like, the truth is I only drove down to Grand Island then went to Wompet's (Gary's) House and he drove the remaining miles. We got down to the games without much problem and were on-site by about 12:20 after a strange little parking setup and a shuttle to get there. The games were held in the Pinecreek Campgrounds so it was a strange setting for a highland games, but it was a fun day and in a games with about 1700 people there were around 7 X-Markers in the crowd. So onto the Pictures

No sooner had we paid at the gate then Barb Tewksbury was there giving me a hug in her piper gear, here she is with Gary


This was interesting a sword with a drone for a handle


Here is the field


Mexpiper and Wompet


We met the kilted magician, sort of a kilt don't I'm sure he'd look better had it fit him properly




There was a wee Heilan Coo


And some sheep


A group shot of some of the X-Markers there.


Gary's mystery bill of fare, what do you think it is?
