Reason #184 to love May: Festival Season . Memorial Day weekend is intended to remember those whose last breath was taken in battle. Most people seem to have forgotten the intention behind the day and celebrate summer instead. In Alma, Michigan, however, they take time to raise awareness to the fact that grown men have knees and should proudly show them. My ginger top fooled them.... The most impressive part of the fife and drums, perhap, is that many people play in Michigan! I mean, its not like people are busking on the street corner with their bagpipe. We searched for old friends at the Feats of Strength competitions/show. Even though we didn't find them, I'm pretty sure we saw him throw a tree. The Highland Festival and Games reminded me how much I love small town fests and that plaid is truly my favourite colour.
