Sherman Celtic Festival (March 23-24, 2019)

For the third year in a row Sherman, Texas, played host to a successful and much admired Celtic festival.

Participants in Celtic festivals are an interesting lot.  We are kilted and proud of our Irish, Scottish, and Welsh roots.  Tartans of all colors, patterns, and stylings are everywhere and the bagpipes certainly stir the blood.

This year the festival was two days long rather than a single Saturday.  The weather was certainly not ideal, but that did not stop the kilted Celts from showing their family pride.  With several mainstages (on named for the late, great Jed Marum) the music could not be beaten this year.  

From Viking warrior demonstrations and the Highland games to phenomenal vendors and a new venue, the Sherman Celtic Festival continues to grow and improve each year.  A few pictures are below:

Jamaica Beach, Day 4

Today started slow, as vacation days should.  No real plans other than a bit of shopping and a nap. Quick breakfast and then helped Brandon....
