Liriel if you can only come for the day that's good too! If you can't make it we will miss seeing you! We will have to find another time to get together....

Have you checked all of the kennels in your area that offer their little quests TLC while there?

Annabelle,

It's not looking good for coming even for the day. I can't leave my baby girl with a kennel because she has behavioral problems. I usually leave her with my mom but she is going away this weekend. That's why we won't be able to come.

It really sucks because I've been planning this for two months. But I'm definitely planning for go for the 2008 Reunion. That one I'll be able to bring the babies because I'll be bringing the camper.

Have fun all.

WOOHOO!!!!!



Back from Bethlehem!!

We had an awesome time. We have a ton of pictures to post and Annabelle single-handedly, added much to the economy of the Bethlehem area (wait til she gets home and finally figures out how much she spent rolleyes.gif ).

We made contact with just about every band that played there and we have some new music to add from some plus some others will contact Mac the usual way.

Glengarry Bhoys (triple encore), Wolfstone and Tartan Terrors smoked the fest. Charlie Zahm and Seamus Kennedy were marvelous, as usual. Both Charlie and Seamus are doing Celtic cruises for their fans and you can check the details on their web pages.

The weather was perfect all three days and the place was packed. The organizers were figuring that almost 300,000 came this year. They had more vendors there this year than I have ever seen before and it looked like people were spending money. Rocky, at U.S.A Kilts was there and wanted everyone to know that he will gladly help you out with all your kilt needs. Let him know you are from CR.

We will have more on the fest when we get all the pictures organized and ready to post. Should take about a week or so, before you start seeing pictures.

I am so glad that you all had great weather and the best time. Just wish I was able to join you. But fate gives you a reason for everything.

My husband became very ill on Thursday. Flu like symptoms and bad stomach cramps.

Well I will be able to come to the next one though.

If there was ever a reason to attend the fest in Bethlehem, PA. in 2005. It was just announced that the USA National Highlander Championships will be held there. You can bet there will be more than the 320,000 who attended this year because of the importance of this event.

By the way, this is what the fest looked like a week prior to the event. The remnants of one of the hurricanes came through eastern PA. and flooded downtown Bethlehem. The red and white striped tent is the main performing tent under 8 feet of water. The town of Bethlehem and many volunteers worked day and night to clean everything up before the start of the festival on Friday night.
