Posted - Apr 15 2010 : 12:30:51 PM Cool, what a neat idea! There aren't enough hours in the day to investigate this whole place. Well, there may be- but I do need to work some of the time. ![](icons/icon_smile_clown.gif) Sorry , I missed the game.
Cj, I'm of Scotch/Irish descent too, on my mother's side. (Ewan a sept of the MacLachlan Clan). I've been so fascinated with Scotland, my brother bought me a small plot through a nature conservancy over there. Everyone jokes that I'm "Lady Staci" since I own "property" in Scotland. Yeah, a whole square foot. ![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif) We hope to visit some day and take turns standing on it. And of course my kids get to inherit. lol Seriously, I do hope and pray to one day visit the countries - all I hear and see just makes me want it more. thanks for the day dream inspiration!
Blessings, staci FG# 973 :o )

Posted - Apr 14 2010 : 06:02:41 AM Yay! Dutchy you won!!
We all figured you were in bed asleep when we were all still up and carrying on over here.
How many time zones different are you from our Eastern time zone? Do you have any idea of about how long it takes a package to go from here to there . . . and of course this one will be coming from the "sticks" in Southwest Colorado.
I'll get a package together for you . . . I know you like pink!! :) When I get it in the mail I will let you know so you can be on the lookout for it.
THANKS AGAIN GIRLS!!!! CJ

Posted - Apr 13 2010 : 6:52:41 PM Melody . . we probably are related!! Wouldn't that be a hoot!!!
Yes, I am of Celtic ancestry . . very Scottish and Irish. The GARDNERS are a sept (division) of the GORDON CLAN in Scotland which is a HIGHLAND clan. "Gardiner" and "Gardener" are derivatives/different spellings of the same name.
My married name is ARMSTRONG which is VERY SCOTTISH. The ARMSTRONG CLAN is a BORDER CLAN and their ancient history is . . . well, rather a bunch of rascals!!!
My hubby and I have had the privilege of making three separate trips to Scotland, 2 of those included trips to Ireland, one included Wales and they have all included London.
We have been able to visit the clan seat and castle and "stomping" grounds of the GORDON CLAN. And we have spent a lot of time in BORDERS tromping around in the Armstrong sites, castles, etc. We have made some friends there . . . last name of ARMSTRONG.
WE LOVE THE COUNTRIES!!! WE'D LOVE TO GO BACK!!!![](icons/icon_smile.gif) I saw so much that reminded me of my dad, my mom, my family and our farm!!!!
THANKS FOR THE FUN GIRLS!!!!!!![](icons/icon_smile_big.gif)
Sometime I'll have to think of something else we can "play" . . . CJ ![](icons/icon_smile_tongue.gif)
