Irish Festival

The Rocky Mountain Irish Festival was held the last weekend of September here in Fort Collins. Mama decided that we were going. Daddy started us off by doing a bit of a jig on his knee scooter.
We saw some Irish Dancers
These air balls are rolled around by being inside. Later Daddy let me take a turn in the pink one, but Mama had the camera so there aren't pictures of ME in it.
Mama thought this great horned owl was neat
We were able to pet lots of Irish Setters
Daddy likes big dogs--like this Irish Wolfhound. The owner said this one was small for a male.
Of course there were Connemara Ponies for Mama to enjoy!
We also heard some nice pipe and drum outfits. This one is possibly unique for having a doumbek in the ensemble.
And some that were more traditional
Daddy had a Harp ale.
We were tired but had a good day!
