How would you describe this shot in one word?

The rebuilding of one of Scotland's most famous castles

Good history and pictures!

It is one of Scotland's most photographed landmarks and the very essence of the romantic Highland castle.

Charles MacRae sent us this photo that he took of our group at the Sheriffmuir Battlefield Memorial outside of Stirling, Scotland. We wer there for the 2019 Clan MacRae Gathering. Thanks Charles!

Leon and Janet Folsom sent the following announcement for a memorial service for their son Lamar. In the picture, Lamar is 3rd from the right at our 2016 Colorado Games in Snowmass. He was also a welcome participant on our 2009 tour of Scotland. He will be missed!

Finally, some pictures of the 2019 Clan MacRae Gathering that took place in Scotland May 8th through the 12th! Everyone had a glorious time and the weather could not have been better while at Eilean Donan Castle. That was not the case with the climb up Arthur's Seat to recreate the 1778 Affair of the Wild MacRaes, but we had many who braved the gale force winds and rain to make it all the way to the top! Enjoy these photos and make plans to attend a Gathering sometime in the future. It truly is the trip of a lifetime! ... See more

It is with great sadness that we tell you of the passing of Lamar Folsom. He was a lifetime member of the Clan MacRae Society and the son of Janet and Leon, a past president of the Society.
