    Kilties in Williamsburg, VA

    I was in Williamsburg,Va this past weekend with the wife for our anniversary. While there I ran into 4 other kilties 1 at Busch Gardens, 1 in Market Square (both Utilikilts) and 2 in Scotland House Ltd. (both were period re-enactors). Always good to see other kilties.

    According to my mother, Williamsburg is prettiest in the evening after an inch or two of snow.

    I'm going to test that theory in December when the wife and I head down for a weekend away from everyone and everything. It may not snow, but it'll be close enough

    Williamsburg was great this weekend. The leaves we're almost at peak color. I've never been there in the snow. I may try to get back up there this winter.

    Unfortunately I didn't get any pics of the other kilties (Didn't have my camera with me at the time). I do have some pics of Williamsburg that I got later. I'll try to post them later tonight.

    One side note, one of the gentlemen I meet told me that he works conventions for Utilikilt. Said that he had worked DragonCon this year and sold over $35,000 of utilikilts there. He said they had guys dressed as Stormtroopers wearing kilts with there costumes. Just shows you how much more accepted the kilt is becoming.
