Fun in the snow!

[Nighthawk]

Nighthawk: Great website! I bookmarked it. I like the current video, though it too made me feel cold. I caught a glimpse of a rotary plow (though not in action), and saw you and Jackie waving at the passengers. Nice kilt! Was your dad filming that? He's pretty good with a camera. Mine are always shaky.

Thanks! It's MacLeod of the Isles, double box pleated, made by Hothir Ethelnor on the boar here. And yes, my dad did indeed film that. He's had a lot of practice!

I liked that short biography of your mom and dad.

Wow! You had a long ride home from the hospital, after you were born, though you probably don't remember much about it.

My grandma came for my birth. She never quite forgave my parents for that!

No wonder you're cold blooded living on that 8000' plain and in even higher mountains. Tell your Arapaho friend that his ancestors lived on the relatively balmy Great Plains, so that's why he can't take the cold.

Do you have a picture of your Chama tartan design? I would like to see it sometime.

Yep! We had a lovely arctic cold front blow through. It got down to -7 last night! I take a three mile hike around Sloan's Lake every morning- every morning, rain, shine or snow. The 3 other people I ran across this morning thought I was totally insane for being out there in a kilt. Couldn't quite make them understand just how warm they are. I was wearing the same one as in that video.

Oh yeah, my dad has an image of my tartan. I'll see if he'll email it to me.
