Maxville Highland Games

Friend Teresa

Well I had a fun day yesterday at the Maxville Highland games with friend Teresa.
We arrived early in the morning and wandered the ground listening to individual Pipe, Fiddle and drum competitions.
We watched sheep dog demonstrations, we listened to Celtic music, we watched people, left the grounds and had lunch in Maxville at a pub. Returned to the grounds, bumped into friends, made some new friends, later in the day we enjoyed a beer or two at the beer area.
The evening opening ceremonies were great, the weather cleared and now the real crowds of people arrived, it was just a great day.
You have to love the pipes because they are in your ears all day (I do).
We left just before the evening concert being as we were all pooped out from the long day.
As it turns out this may have been a good thing. Shortly after arriving home the heavens in Ottawa in a great large thunder storm that lasted 30 minutes or so. I only hope it missed Maxville.
It was a great day, I will return.
