RE: Scottish Highland Games for Market Friday
Oh yes what a colorful post. The games seem to have the cool feel of a Renaissance Festival to them. Something you can look forward to going to each year. I do love the sound of the bagpipes. Any droning instrument is right up my alley, just like a hurdy gurdy!
Well I made it for Market Friday with plenty of time to spare :) Hope you had a good day.

Thank you! The games were a lot of fun and it was really something I always look forward to. No matter how many times you go, the outcome is different, even the way they do the herding of the sheep. The terrain makes a huge difference too. They always have it out a bit and on one of the farms, so there is plenty of land and there is lots of room to spread.
Ha! The hurdy-gurdy! Yes. I do love the bagpipes and at one time, Sarah was going to take lessons in one as she was really interested, but, a move prevented her from taking it up with a reliable Scot so the plans were dashed. But, I still love the sound. We used to have a neighbor down the street that played one and he practiced late at night. It was hauntingly beautiful and very melodramatic sounding drifting into the darkness.
Thank you for stopping by and leaving your words and dropping your link. It is always and forever appreciated by me. Have a great week!
#MarketFriday loves you!
