RE: Part Two: Why My Home Town's Residents Love Bagpipes And Parades

in #story7 years ago

Bagpipes are part of certain cultures and heritage. I'll leave at that as I might encroach on some future thunder. Snick! Snick! My paternal grandmother gave me a giant hard-bound world Atlas when I was age ten. In the center was a large section on anthropology. I was hooked. Later, when I spent many hours with her going deep into the family tree, I gained greater clarity of my Pict, Welsh, and Scottish roots. Nineteen of the Kings of the Scots were King Aed.

Fascinating! I'd like to travel to Scotland, one day. Just to touch some standing stones and see what a whole field of heather looks like.
