The pipes are calling...



Whew! July is ALWAYS my busiest month...camping trips, family visits, and the biggest Highland Games in the area where I am a volunteer. I may not be able to post much so here's a few bagpipe jokes to tide you over...

Q: Why do bagpipers walk when they play?

A: To get away from the noise.


Q: What's the only thing worse than a bagpiper?

A: Good question. We're still trying to find out too.

I understand the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made object never equaled the purity of sound achieved by the pig.

~ Alfred Hitchcock


Q. How do you get two bagpipes to play a perfect unison?

A. Shoot one.


Q. What's the difference between a bagpipe and an onion?

A. No one cries when you chop up an bagpipe.


Frankly, I love the music of the pipes! Stay cool this month!
