    Recent Adventues

    Some recent adventures here:

    Adventure #1
    A quick weekend away, I was kilted most of the weekend and got loads of positive comments and a kilt check. Here I am throwing rocks across the Russian River in Guernville, CA.





    Adventure#2
    Dressed-up semi-casually to go to the musical WICKED! We had excellent seats, not only because we were so close, but because we sat next to a woman from England who was a piper in a London Drum&Pipe band. (She only admitted that seeing that I was kilted.) Sporran is an ebay score but was made from our own XMTS Brice Lythgoe.



    Here's a close-up of my newest kilt pin (now I have 2) from Ebay. It's a monkey hanging onto a branch.


    Cheers!

    Looks like you had a couple of nice adventures. What tartan are you wearing at the river?

    I scored a Mackenzie kilt off ebay this summer - it's pretty heavy - and old. It's one of my favorite kilts to wear around actually.
