found a local kiltie!
Today Wife took the girls to a birthday party and I had the Boy. We had a good day. I did laundry, worked on my winter boots and took a long walk with the lad. The breeze was a mite strong so I wasn't wearing a kilt. Tried re-blocking my Iraqi RG beret, but I'll need to do it again.
After they got home we took Fish (3 y/o daughter) to the local Meijer. As we were leaving I saw a guy who looked to be wearing shorts in the unkind weather. Wife asked me if he was wearing a skirt. "Huh?" was my erudite response. "A kilt," she replied. Oh. "Go look," she says. I rushed ahead and couldn't tell since he is slender and the garment was black & long (past the knees). Then Wife sent me after him.
I caught up with him. It was indeed a kilt- UK Original- and seemingly new. He agreed that there were few kilties in this area and did not know about online communities like this. I gave him the name of the site and he liked it. Said he is half Scottish. Maybe he'll show up here.
It was weird. I felt awkward like the new kid at school.
Anyway, he knows we're here now.
