    Nor Cal Trip

    The Trip Was a success. It was fun to meet everybody and I looking forward to do this again. On Saturday I got commented on my kilt from a gentleman who said I looked "Stunning". After the Games I contiuned up north to Sacamento for dinner with friends. When We got to the restarant, the hostess came up to me and said " I just have to know do you always were a kilt?" I replied " Yes I do" Then she said thats awesome and our table was ready. Sooner then earlier told (power of the kilt!) After dinner we walked around old town. I did get a nice skirt comment form a guy who worked in the candy store we stopped at. I corrected him and said its a kilt. Late sunday evening I headed back to So Cal and been catching up on sleep ever since. And Now Here Are the Pictures!

    So, did you get out of the vendors buildings and tents with your wallet intact?

    Looking forward to throwing together at Seaside!

    Super pics, looks like everyone had lots of fun.
    Thats a very interesting kilt Way2fractious is wearing in the last photo, looks like maroon, black and white camo rather than the pink kilt he was wearing in some of FHCAG's photos.
    The young lads are obviously having a good time with that yellow toy - is it a catapult, or is it a wishbone from Grant's rubber chicken which little Xena is holding?

    Big Mikey's C.W.B.F.H. brought gifts for the youngsters; glow in the dark bracelets. They also became very small light sabers that had to be temporarily confiscated in the crowded environs of DCB, (as well as a wishbone for Grant).

    Ryan, it was a real pleasure to meet you. I hope I lived up/down to your expectations. And remember, that spare room is available.
