The internet crashed right in the middle of that last journal entry. Will continue when I get a chance. This weekend is the Scottish Irish Highlands Festival here in Estes... it's only taken 3 summers for me to finally make it! Log dog and I forgot about the parade and went into town for a jog and breakfast, only to get diverted. I didn't plan on going to the parade, but we ended up walking downtown with a breakfast english muffin, strawberry smoothie... and my 110 lb big black german shepherd at my side. One dude in a kilt even asked if he could take a photo of my beautiful dog. ;) We made it into town, but ran into Sov (Tim's friend/coworker/Kim's boyfriend) and ended up talking to him through the entire thing. So... I heard the parade, but didn't see it. Just saw all the Irish Wolfhounds, Scotties, Westies, and tons of men in kilts. :) I then tried to take Logan for a jog at the lake, which went pretty well... until we passed another dog. Then, I had lots of people giggling at me as I urged him "Keep on running! Keep on running!" I'm sure I would have laughed at me, too. :)
Tim and I are going to the main festivities in about half an hour - Scotch tasting, lots and LOTS of music, herding dog competition, highlands competitions (jousting, and who knows what else men in kilts are capable of) and GUINNESS! Last year I missed it, was out on a fire, 2003 I think I was back in Michigan or maybe somebody was visiting me??
So here's some more photos. Gotta jet!
