After watching the dipnetters for a bit and then writing about them here it was time to head to the sister city to grocery shop. Only . . . this sign caught my eye and I made a slight detour.

Come on – you know you would, too. It was only a 4 mile drive out of my way . . . .

First thing I found after I’d parked was . . . men in skirts!!! (Click for larger views)

Erm . . yes, I know those last two are women in skirts. I missed a shot of another woman swinging the hammer. Then men in red tartans are related somehow. There was a lot of joshing about family honor.

After seeing the hammer throw I went over to check out the sawfest in progress. They started Wednesday and today is the last day. Lots of very nice work on display:

Last photo of the day . . . I promise. On the way home I decided to go by way of Bridge Access Rd. again. The road was even more packed – traffic was tied up and people were all on a walkabout trying to get those red salmon. Crossing the bridge this caught my eye:

Why yes, I did indeed laugh . . . out loud . . . someone was not watching the tides and/or had no idea about that humongo sand bar right there. It has been there for umpteen years and anyone who boats the lower river should know that. Sadly they cannot even get some salmon because their nets won’t reach. Oh, well, tide will come back soon.

And with that, friends, I will leave you for the day. Family, hubby moose and I are going to see HP tonight. I understand that lessa got a discount because hubby moose and I are OLD! lol

I love Saturday detours. 🙂
