    Okay, here's mine.
    Scotland is only 1/5 the size of Montana, but Scotland has over 3,000 castles and Montana has none.

    Re: The Action Kilt Pic Challenge

    I am not getting many opportunities for 'action' thesedays, but the following two old, but hot, photos might give some idea of just how active and intense is my interest in fine wines:

    The enjoyment of sharing a bottle with one's best friends.....



    .........can only be surpassed by not sharing the bottle



    In the past I have enjoyed many hours of kilted light hiking and country walking, but sadly have no photos to prove it, and just one image exists which illustrates my passion for being really active in the extensive gardens here at Bicknell Grange:



    Take care,
    Ham.

    For sure can't top Ham.

    Do horseback ride kilted from time to time.

    Re: The Action Kilt Pic Challenge

    I enjoy "parading around kilted" at our little town's annual Veteran's Day Parade - being in the color guard and thanking veterans for their service. Also fun to combine replica War One and War Two replica jackets and headgear with kilts for the parade to honor my relatives' service.

    Re: The Action Kilt Pic Challenge

    How about giving and receiving IV fluids? That's some major "action."

    Often donated blood kilted - this pic was from when I finished donating 10 gallons.



    That's the local newspaper reporter on the right doing her story. Made the front page of our little weekly.

    Another regular donation kilted



    On the other side of donating is infusion. Here I'm in a similar position only receiving chemo therapy after being diagnosed with leukemia.



    Good news is my oncologist now says I'm "cured." A move up from "in remission."

    Re: The Action Kilt Pic Challenge

    Will spare the hiking pics - but have plenty of them too - a natural kilted activity.

    Here's a couple "unusual action" pics
