Regina

The trip out, we figured we had over 1200 pounds of meat popsicles in the van before baggage.













the day started as a good Regina games day, totally miserable. The Regina highland games are noted for one thing, crap weather.

Don't i look so happy to be there?












Jimmy is happy to be there too.

Doug Campbell, our host and the man who loves this stuff so much that he puts these games on every year and works hard to make them a good time- Cheers Douglas






















Bobby Brown running the caber.

The dude behind him doing the judging is Allan Sims. He and 2 pals came from Scotland for these games for the fun of it. Allan has thrown with the likes of Bill Anderson,his brother Grant, Hamish Davidson and Douglas Edmunds. These are some of of the legends in modern highland games, these are the guys who set the bar for what we do. Soooooooo cool.










Near the end of the day and the weather took an about face and became freaking nice. Nothing like getting all 4 seasons in a single day.

Bob and I after a good day of throwing.
