Highland Games

St Louis Scottish Games. We all loved it. In fact we keep talking about it. Rick and I love the bagpipes and there was plenty of that going on the whole day.

One field was devoted to the pipers and drummers and they played the whole day. It was amazing.

This was part of the games, the log toss, it has a more technical name but I don't have time to search for that right now. Look close and you can see the log in midair.

Re-enacting a black knight fight.

The parade of clans with a military parade as well. Some of the veterans were very elderly so there was a little difficulty with the turns! They were proud scots!

The english car club trotted out the MGB's. My Dad passed on his love of these gorgeous cars to me.

Release the hounds.There were scottish terriors there as well.

I wish we had taken more pics. There were birds, sheep, dancing, and most importantly cornish pasties and sausage rolls, fabulous. It reminded me of Australia and made me think of my family and our scottish heritage, is that why the bagpipes sounded so good to me? Whatever you did this past weekend was not as wonderful as what we did. Okay, maybe you had a great weekend too but I had to show you what we did (Besides listen to an excellent General Conference of course). Here are some videos we took if you need some bagpipe therapy.
