    Heading out to Lodge

    My Son, Bill III and I on his Lodge night. He was invested as Jr. Steward and so, starts through the chairs.

    Not that I'm proud or anything!



    This is the three of us: Bills II, III, and IV. I think . . . I think I'm going to need a wee kilt soon!



    We're a bit of an odd match here; it's Bill II's first time kilted ever, so it's all my gear and I had to scratch about a bit. As a new officer, we put him in black barathea, and I managed to get by as a visitor with the charcoal tweed.

    When I wear the Sheriffmuir it goes particularly well with the clerical collar since it mimics the same lines. Bill III however, is an engineer. No clerical collar.

    You both look very smart. Congratulations to Brother Bill III on joining the line of your Lodge.

    I found the pic on Pinterest, followed the link to find out it was taken in 1915, and is someone's aunt at 3 years old.
