    First Snow in my County Donegal

    Well, today was the first serious snowfall of the year here in Coeur d Alene so I thought that a good enough excuse to show off my County Donegal from House of Edgar. Since there was a recent thread about kilts and sweaters, I thought I'd toss on a navy sweater and Balmoral to top things off.





    I call this the "Snowy Hamish!"

    Nice woodland setting and the hose and sweater go well with the kilt.

    Great hat, wonderful kilt, magnifacient snow, and all that in Coeur D' Alene.

    Phil,

    That is a great combination! I too love the 'sweater and kilt' look and have just ordered Arran sweaters in black and navy blue to augment the green and beige ones I already have.

    The "Snowy Hamish" is as near perfect as I have yet seen - very well done!

    And, the beard! I did not know that you have also grown one. It is looking good.

    [PS: You have more snow there than we have probably had in the last three/four years together. Alas, global warming has just about put paid to the whiteouts we used to have not so many winters ago.]

    Great look Phil! While I enjoy the snow for a short time (like XMas eve and Xmas day), I will not miss the 6 months of winter we had in Chicago last year.
