We are just 9 days away from the start of the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games, and we're incredibly excited! As I type, fabric is flying through our sewing machines, and piles of tartan are enroute from Scotland. We're busy wrapping up all the last-minute preparations so we can begin our trip down to North Carolina for a weekend filled with friends and family. It truly feels like coming home every time we're on the Mountain!
A few years ago, a friend filmed and produced an amazing video about the games that perfectly encapsulates how special these games are to so many people. Linked here. We absolutely cannot wait to see everyone next weekend on The Mountain!
