Monarch of the Glen fans and your photos of the games made me think of a book you might enjoy - from Lillian Jackson Braun's "Cat Who" series - "The Cat Who Robbed a Bank" - there is the Highland Games at the center of the story with lengthy descriptions and a great cozy mystery to solve along the way. Alas, I am just a wannabe. I'm Italian with a touch of Ukraine. But, for some reason I have always felt kindred to England, Scotland, and Ireland more than anywhere else! Love their history! For great historical fiction you might love Michael Phillips "Caledonia" two part epic. It is an amazing piece of work - powerful - magnificent! Loved your period attire - I've got my tartan plaid outfit from head to toe I wear for these types of events. And, my husband is a Ross - so I pick up his tartan via the Scottish Lion catalog - though he claims the Swede ancestry to be more prevalent. Thanks for sharing!<br />Joy!<br />Miss KathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194470134127218973.post-45351344883538307302011-07-31T13:57:18.667-07:002011-07-31T13:57:18.667-07:00My family is of Scottish descent.

My grandmother came from Scotland in 1920. She and my aunt both had a Scottish brogue, which I always loved. I remember going to an event as a child and seeing my Dad dress in a kilt and I think he tried to play the bagpipes! It was pretty hysterical!<br />The sound of the bagpipes makes me miss him now. You're having quite the eventful summer, my friend! Enjoy every minute! It's flying bye....<br />Blessings!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13048920109768877198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4194470134127218973.post-27129362244700580462011-07-31T05:12:54.176-07:002011-07-31T05:12:54.176-07:00Lady you just have toooooooooo much fun.
