RE: Men of the Highland Games

in Photography Lovers11 months ago

Thanks for the compliment. Those women that do the caber toss are super strong. I just finished a post dedicated to the women of the Highland Games and they were doing the care toss event while I was there. The whole event was really cool to see and I hope to visit more festivals like this soon.

Sort:  

Don't they usually have them at about the same time of year? The ones around here are always in September. All of the ones within the State are also about the same.

I couldn't believe the strength of those women. It was wild! I have never known anyone with that kind of ability.

I hope you do get to see more. I was hooked after the very first. You know, Men, skirts. What's not to love?

Kidding. But, they were truly awesome to watch!

These games were during a Scottish Festival here. I think they have an event around the same time as yours where it is focused around competing in the games. I will have to keep an eye out for it because I would love to go to an event dedicated to all the Highland Games.

That's exactly it! Because it is in the US, the also have dancing, bagpipes and different things showing off the culture. I really live it and the games go on all day.
