Highland Games

We attended the Inverness Highland Games for a few hours yesterday, long enough to see a few "heavies" competitions, two pipe bands, some dancing, and the very traditional truck pull competition. Women, some no larger than I am, took turns in a loose fitting harness, trying to get a rather large truck to move forward. Finally one did, so we saw that it could be done, but it looked like nothing but a future back ache for everyone else.

Then the rain started, so we retreated from the games to lunch and a bookstore, a favorite fall back on any rainy day.
