Our friends at the Scottish Banner were kind enough to send us an electronic copy of their November edition. There are kilted, shirtless men on the cover, so of course I have to share it with all of you.

They also have an online site where they share some of their content:

We took our cowgirl GCD to the USA Clydesdale Preservation Foundation to visit the beautiful horses. Clydesdales are a Scottish breed of draft horses. Desert Thistle sister Nikki Schuller has been a volunteer with the Foundation for several years. The mission of this wonderful group is to preserve the Clydesdale breed and educate the public. There are only 5000 Clydesdales left in the world, which puts them on the “threatened” species list. If you’d like more information on the Clydesdales, or to make a donation, please visit their website:

PCD Helen Cisson is a volunteer at the Butterfly Wonderland, and she arranged a trip for the GCD.
