    Sometimes You're Just In The Right Place At The Right Time

    So I decided to take a relaxing and scenic drive across the Arizona Strip to pick up some of my favorite cheese. Stopped at the Silver Eagle in Kanab, Utah to top off the tank before heading out onto the strip.

    A guy backing his pickup out stops and asks, "What clan are you?" I answered, "Macdonald, but this is the U.S. Army tartan." He responded, "But that's a clan too - Hooaah!"

    Pics are from the road to Toroweap on the Northern Kaibab-Paiute reservation. Wonder if it means anything that the dirt is the color of my skin?





    Kilt is USA Kilt's semi-trad. "Sporran" is a deerskin Western Shoshone pouch I bought a few years ago at Pipe Springs, AZ

    The kilt and sporran look great. I wouldn't worry about your legs. Living up here in Seattle, I had to come to terms with my paleness also. Now I don't even notice it!
