Grandfather Mountain Games 2005
Thanks to Cheryl (Meyne) MacMillan for sending in these pictures


Note that some of the pictures are from the Highland Patrons Banquet.  Sir Robert Bell (President of Appalachian Branch Clan MacMillan) and his lovely wife Lady Sue Bell are shown with me. Also my sister and her husband along with my husband Fritz and me.

Also a couple photo's show the "Kirkin the Tartan's" Sunday morning on the open meadow of Grandfather Mountain.  It was a really beautiful site.  Over 100 Clans (and Societies) were represented at these games.  With special guests Archibald Angus Charles Kennedy, 8th Marquess of Ailsa, 19th Earl of Cassillis (show in one of the pictures).  I had the chance to visit with him and he was very excited about my forthcoming novels series "The Highland Lairds", as I have written previously to you.  Lord Charles actually asked if I would consider writing one of his Kennedy families history (I said a resounding "yes".)   Also, James William Faulkner Keith, 14th Earl of Kintore was present at these games.

 
We had another fabulous time this year.  Hope you enjoy these.
 
Sincerely,
