Duncan and the others lead their horses into the barn and put them into their stalls, and removed saddles and saddlebags.  Out of those they took clean clothing and large towles along with some soap.  "Well now Angus, me thinks I saw you eyeing Marion's sister back there."  Nathan chuckled and ducked as Angus tried to swat his head with a large hand.  Angus was a tall man like Duncan with long redish hair, beard and a barrel chest.  He was a strong man and usually a quiet man but if ye got him mad he be something to recon with.  Duncan laughed at the antics and what Nathan said.  Duncan knew Angus' parents had been trying to get their son married, but could never seem to find the right woman for him.  He looked over at his cousin a grin on his face.<br/><br/>"Well now cousin, is what Nathan be saying true.  Ye been eyeing me bride to be's sister?"  their was merith in Duncans eyes.  Angus knew he would not hear the end of it.<br/><br/>"So what if did."  he said.  "She be a pretty lass and nice to the eyes.  There be no harm in it."  Angus mumbled out.<br/><br/>Duncan laughed and slapped his cousin on the back.  Could it be his cousin be smitten with the Lowlander woman.  With all the highlander woman of the McCloud Clan that was available and a number of them vying for his attention, it seemed a bit odd and humorous that he be struck by a woman of the Lowlands.  Perhaps it was the man's gentle heart.  Though a powerful warrior of the Clan and fierce in battle, Angus was not the type to have harsh words for anyone.   "Well that she be, cousin."  he looked at the other three and grinned and said.  "Now get ye to the stream, me thinks we smell horrible and we must clean ourselves well."  As they approached the stream the men began shedding their clothes, ignoring the presence of Morgan.  By the time they got to the stream's edge they were naked and they dove in and began splashing each other with the cold water.  Duncan laughed loudly as he finally stripped and walked into the water.  One could see his strong and muscular body now.  Taking the soap he began to lather himself well before passing it to Angus.	The dirt and grime, dust and sweat was washed away, even from his hair as he dunked himself down under the water a number of times scrubbing away at his hair as well.<br/><br/>It took them a wee bit to wash and have some fun in the water before they walked out and grabbed their towels and dried off.  "Now I be feeling clean and refreshed.  Though a cold bath, it was envigorating!"  Nathan called out and the others agreed.  Duncan dressed in his clean clothes began washing his dusty and sweaty ones in the stream. and then warped them in the towel.  After the others dressed they did the same and they then all headed back to the barn and hung them up over the wood railings.  Duncan then lead them all to the house and knocked on the door.
