It's Better in Dunedin

Let me tell ya Sassenachs...one of the coolest places in the US is Dunedin, Florida. It is Scottish Heaven! The streets have names like Grant and Highland Ave...and the Scottish heritage abounds all over town. For example, if you go to a restaurant called Bon Appetit, which is on the gulf, you will hear the pianist play "Scotland the Brave" directly at sunset. Seriously. I may move here.

Scottish Highland Games 2011

I'm sorry...but would there be anything cooler than going to Highland games...IN THE HIGHLANDS?  No, no there would not. 

Let's Do "The Book Thing!"

Eh. My. Gah.  Tracey just sent this to me and said "This must go viral!"  So I watched.  And all I have to say is this:

We LOVE the Outlander Book Club.  And we LOVE this!  Kudos, Silver Thistle!!



265 Years Ago Today: The Battle of Culloden

265 years ago today, over 1,000 Scottish Clansmen and supporters of Prince Charles Stuart died in less than an hour at the battle of Culloden. What followed was years of near-genocide in the Scottish Highlands to rid the area of its language, dress and clans.
