    MY "DATE"-Puffer

    I live in a very diverse ethnic neighborhood,Latino,Ukraine,African Amer.ETC, As I was going out to get the mail, I stopped to watch the Kids build a snow "LADY". One of the mothers (a young Latino) asked me to pose, they wanted a picture of their "Scotsman" on his way out on the TOWN..:

    The temp is 28 with 14" of snow. The KILT is a WPG Gordon.

    LIFE is FANTASTIC !!

    Those snow dates usually turn out to be so... frigid.

    Great photo! One can appreciate a heavy, traditional kilt in this kind of weather.

    BTW, what we wouldn't give to have temps. as high as 28 in Illinois right now!

    Yeah, 28 would be a tropical heat wave.

    Cool picture, and a wonderful experience. I do sometimes wish it was a bit more diverse around here. But Iowa farm country just is not that way. Gotta go to town for that.
