I went for a heli flight out of Long Beach, CA (LGB) with my friend and pilot Dale friday around noon. As we lifted off I pointed out Sportkilt's building off to our left and he said "maybe we should go by there later .."
After a cool game of chase with Coastie off Points Fermin and Vicente (lighthouses are very cool), I was happy once we returned inland as it was a bit frosty out over the water (I took my door off, thankfully I was unkilted).

When we were driving back Dale swung into the lot blocking James' parking but the fine folks at SK with a little help from me got Dale turned out in a fine USN tartan, hose, flashes, belt, and sporran at about 50% off.

Reportedly he's going to be at Muldoon's Newport today, we haven't told anyone he's joined the Kilted Ranks yet (ok, so I did tell Southern Red but she's not coming so surprise time is in about 2 and a half hours from right now.
Pics when I get them.
