Ithica Highland Games







Yesterday was the First Annual Games in Ithica NY, I decided to take the drive down and see what it was like, the truth is I only drove down to Grand Island then went to Wompet's (Gary's) House and he drove the remaining miles. We got down to the games without much problem and were on-site by about 12:20 after a strange little parking setup and a shuttle to get there. The games were held in the Pinecreek Campgrounds so it was a strange setting for a highland games, but it was a fun day and in a games with about 1700 people there were around 7 X-Markers in the crowd.

No sooner had we paid at the gate then Barb Tewksbury (Barb made my Royal Naval Tartan kilt, and she and David her husband are just the nicest people you'd ever want to meet) was there giving me a hug in her piper gear
