It was a very fine evening!

This is Ham's and my version of what I believe is known in the common vernacular as "roughing it" .

Well, still sorry work etc. didn't permit a trek across the desert to the gathering...but then, I don't drink anymore or play minitature golf so may have been a bit of a drag. Now...the air museum...hot dang!! And how about those Ike jackets on display behind Jamie in that pic of the motorcycle...yummy stuff for a kilt addict.

Jamie,
The photos are fun but your wardrobe is amazing!
Don't go changing...

Wonderful pics, folks! It looks like you all had a fabulous time.

Yes, isn't The F-H.B.C.A.G.'s pink camouflage Freedom Kilt great, especially with those matching argyle hose acquired later?

It was a very wonderful weekend with lots of new friendships being instigated and old ones being renewed. Palm Springs was great and the fun was nonstop. We must all do it again soon and others should now join us since you all have visual proof of the grand conviviality.

I'm so Sorry there are not that many Pictures. But that just show you how much fun was had. To the point we forgot to record the moments on film. It was a honor to meet Hamish and Jim(If you ask Hamish I was as giddy as a school girl

) It was great to meet up with everyone and the trip was well worth it.

With our game concluded (and I won in our foursome thank you very much! )

Just to set the record straight, yes, Jamie did win (45 points to Richard and Steve's tie of 47 points each), but...

I had the coolest score, especially seeing as we had traveled a stretch of that particular road...

66

So, sure, it may be an achievement to win at miniature golf, but I think it takes particular skill to arrive at a specific score!

Be well,
