Hello another newbie from Virginia

**kiltedhillbilly** · 2nd March 19, 05:51 AM

Hello all and thanks for letting me join your community. My name is Bobby I am 41(tomorrow) male from SW Virginia in the Blue Ridge Mtns of the Moonshine capital of the world. A little about me, I am a father, NPS ranger, cancer fighter, fiddler, homesteader, brewer, tabletop gamer, woodworker, and an aspiring scottish heavy athlete and kilt enthusiast. When comes to kilts I am a real newbie. I bought a DNKE last year to begin training in but when the cancer hit it slowed the training way down and I dont wear it nearly as much as I should. In recfent weeks I have sought to change that by just generally wearing it while I do my work around my home. Now I want to take it farther. I am looking forward to getting some tartans..my family is Fraser so I would love to get the clan kilt and Blackwatch. Again thanks for having me and I lokk forward to conversing with many of you

Welcome to the "Great Rabble"!

What's a "DNKE"?

Well met and welcome Bobby. I'll answer Father Bill's question, maybe, (Damn near Kilt 'em). We have many athletes here among us and glad to have more. NPS = National Park Service I assume. Our group contains personalities world wide that don't know all the abbreviations so we spell out many to keep the confusion to a minimum.

Proud to have you join us and hope you feel at home here.
Another Bobby.
