Went to the Scottish games in Eagle River, AK to see a friend throw the caber (telephone pole throwing). Never seen so many men in dresses. Kept my mouth shut. Anyway, had a field day shooting many of the other competitions. Enjoy your plaid.
Never say “Hey, cute skirt” to this guy.
This is our friend Jim throwing the caber. I enjoy a man in a dress with some giant wood.
This is how the caber is tossed. First pick it up.
Get it balanced.
Prepare for the throw.
Pitch the goddam thing into the air.
Hopefully it flips and bounces straight.
Scores are better if it flips in a twelve o’clock position.
A few of the caber throwing thugs.
Don’t mess with these Braveheart boys.
Of course this guy with the leather cod piece.
Hey, how do I change keys on this thing?
Weight throw.
You put it to your lips and you blow.
There’s always someone with a great horned owl in the audience that thinks your nose is a rodent.
I love a good Scottish second-line.
