Well friends, here it is. A beautiful summer day in High River. And 8 months to the day of ordering my Newsome Box pleat (now there's a "jones!") it arrives. After a little pressing, grabbing some things out of the closet here's my first contemporary,traditional summer classic photo on the Forum.

Shirt: pale blue on sale at Marks, $15.
Belt: On sale at the The Bay, $11.99.
Sporran: L&M factory "second", $25.00
Hose: Gaelic Themes, $25.00 (from Freedom Kilts)
XMTS kilt pin and dandelion, a generous welcome gift from Steve Ashton presented to me on the porch of Freedom Kilts in Victoria, BC. We had a fabulous visit. A fine, fine gentleman he is.

Kilt: Wilsons of Bannockburn Robertson Red, Newsome Boxpleat, Priceless.
Now let's see if it all pastes in. First time doing the photobucket thing.

Happy summer, friends!
David
