Playing Catch

I came across this group of gentlemen playing what looked to be a friendly game of catch. I couldn't figure out what the rules were or who was on what team. But they did seem to be having fun until the ball and chain arrived. Then things got serious.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

Shotput is what they're measuring, but at that distance, it's a gathering and not world competition. I might still be able to get the stone over that start barrier :=)

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

A favorite pastime for me at one time...I am part Scottish and used to wear a kilt (In my younger days)

Used to go to the Highland Games nearly every year!...and even took part in
Tossing the Caber too
