These shots are from the many that I took, or were taken, at a recent outing of the Order of Quetzalcoatl to Ensenada Mexico. We are a group of Shriners that raise money for transporting kids to our hospitals. Shriners Hospitals treat burned and crippled children with NEVER a charge for the treatments! We gather a few times a year to let off steam and to raise money.

This outing happened last week-end in Ensenada Mexico, and in addition to drinking a lot of very good Mexican cerveza, we raised over $86K for our charity. We work hard and party hard.

I have more flix, but only these show me. I was, of course, the only one kilted, and it was really fun to be kilted. While walking around the tourest area, I was asked to pose with an old Mexican Dueña, and a few blocks later with a visiting Japanese couple.

It was a fun week-end.

Great pics, James. Were any of the other inductees in that last pic tempted to move up from pants to kilts after the ceremony?

Those aren't the inductees, but we are the ceremonial degree team, that induct the new members. But - None of the new members showed any interest, but several members from far away (we had attendees from many different countries and different states) had a lot of interest.

I promised to e-mail info on lower cost kilts to several. I didn't take any of my tanks, but only five of my SWK's and two Sport kilts (SK).

I wish I had a shot of me bing pushed into the pool while going to the jacuzy in my blackwatch SK. It must have been funny to see. But the cotton fabric of the SK, makes me wonder if I can also throw away my bathing suit! It held up well to the dunking and the clorine!

This was a stag outing, and I had planned on removing the SK before getting into the water, but after it got wet, I said "what the " and just kept it on.

I'm sorry, you say there's a guy in a kilt in this picture. I'm afraid I can't find it.

[James MacMillan]

Take my word for it...... there is!

Those Corona Girls obviously have their kilts on backwards, as the pleats are in the front. Ya' really should have helped them out there, James.

Best regards,

Jake

Excellent pics; looks like a fun trip to an exotic destination.
