David Thompson Columbia Brigade voyageur and in-house bagpiper Grahm McGuire of Thunder Bay, Ontario plays "Scotland the Brave" in period clothing to commemorate the official welcome and greeting ceremony at Wild Goose Landing in Thompson Falls Thursday. McGuire said he learned to play in a Bagpiping Band in his native Ontario some years ago. When the DTCB voyageurs landed ashore in Thompson Falls, their bagpiper entertained crowds of observers with beautiful bagpipe tunes.
