Great photos. I'm curious about NWC. Do you ever come north to the Savannah Games?

I'll look into it. Not sure I'll make it up to St. Mountain this year.

I'm intrigued by the organization's Dunedin connection... my grandparents and great aunt both lived in Dunedin and my parents retired to Clearwater. I bought a practice chanter and a pair of flashes at a highland shop in Dunedin many, many years ago... drove my Scottish soccer coach nuts because I insisted on wearing my flashes during games. I've got several Scottish lines in my ancestry but you might say the seeds of my passion for things Scottish were planted in Dunedin.

Thanks for the photos and the info.
