This weekend we went to the Glasgow Highland Games....held every year for the past 25 years not in Scotland but in Glasgow, Kentucky!! In 2001 Glasgow, KY was the site for the World Highland Games. Why cross the pond for Highland Games when you can just cross the state line and drive 90 minutes north of Nashville!?
There were caber tossing events....
Throwing the weight by height events....which is throwing a really, really heavy piece of metal over a bar as high as you can....
And of course pipes and drums contests...this is the Nashville Pipes and Drums competing...groups from all over came to compete...there was even pipes and drums competing from Alabama, Illinois, and Ohio!
Anna enjoying a picnic on the lawn while listening to the bagpipes...while her Daddy enjoys some Haggis and chips...
And for those of you whose heart aches for the sounds of bagpipes here's a little sample of what you missed at the Glasgow, KY Highland Games!
