I’ve been to Scotland twice in my life and have even looked for Nessie in Loch Ness by boat. And I’ve heard beautiful bagpipes played at Stirling Castle in Scotland, as well as downtown Tucson on 2nd Saturdays Downtown. My favorite song is, of course, the courageous “Scotland the Brave”.

    I suppose if I went dressed as Edward I, some might object?

      Perhaps not if you paid your $3 and drank a lot of whiskey.

    Hey Mark, my Welsh blood hates Edward I too. That’s why there are so many castles in Wales. The English could not keep them down!
    I will bring my Scottish Terrier..and we will look for your Edward I costume.

    Great event Carolyn!
