    The stage at the harp was higher so it didn't leap out at one. And only two folks went with the red ribbon. I picked a woman to wear an XMarks shirt, seemed easier.

    You should see the camo kilt Bill made for his younger son, Patrick?, it is great.

    Someone stated times to meet at the harp tent for both Friday and Saturday. I was there Friday but got the time wrong Saturday. I had red ribbon behind my kilt pin but didn't meet anyone.

    There had been talk of passing flasks around so I carried my Scottish smallpipes round incase we had a little gathering and wanted some music of our own.

    Hopefully I will have better luck next year.

    PS The games were great

    ...........
    Sorry about Friday Pete. I had to make a run to Boone
    Friday to get a camp stove as mine had died.
    That threw me off from being there at 1pm on Friday.
    After some consideration I think we need to
    come up with some better plans for next year.
    The flags at the campsites did not work as there were to many flags.
    I think Bill and you were the only ones with the red ribbons on the kilt pins.


    So I am open for suggestions.
