    Isle of Skye Kilt on the Rez

    Was up on Black Mesa today coming back from Hopi. Black Mesa is part Hopi, part Navajo, and part former joint use area. Its high lonely big sky country. A lot of the travel is on dirt roads.

    Had my Isle of Skye kilt on (Kathy Lare) so stopped to take a couple pics...I mean I "had" to stop anyway for the "usual" reason on a long trip.



    This one was off Navajo route 41 a bit south of the Black Mesa coal mine complex.



    This one is just off Route 98 a bit south of Square Butte. That's Navajo Mountain in the distance

    Turpin is right! The kilt picks up the various colors of the sky. The green of the vegatation. Just wonderful! Do you get paid for doing this?

    I never tire of seeing the Isle of Skye, photos like these are one reason I had to have an Isle of Skye of my own.

    Another excellent photo shoot Ron. A beautiful kilt, proudly worn, in a spectacular landscape.

    Bravo Ron! So nice to see such a lovely tartan in such a beautiful setting. I like the white flashes as well a nice touch with the purple hose.
