Well my Brothers of the Kilt, I have just returned home from my first outing in my kilt and accessories and it was a good day. I actually had my girlfriend with me, even though she was reluctant to go and shyed away from me a bit at first. lol!!!

We went to Balboa Park and attended the Tartan Day Festival and I walked around and chatted with our Brethren from several of the Clans, MacAlister, MacDuff, Logan, Fraser, etc. and I even spoke to a couple of MacDonalds and it was quite pleasant. I even received a couple of compliments from the ladies.

Afterwards my lady and I went to the Mall and went to a Macy's store and did some shopping and I received another compliment from a very cute Campbell lady and a high five! I also got some of the looks I suppose we are expected to get from the uninitiated and uniformed.

On the way home I stopped at my local Starbucks and ordered my usual and the guys asked me what the ocassion was and I explained it to them.


I am posting a picture from right before we left home, so please forgive the belt being crooked, I straightend it out later and was fairly presentable after that!



It was a pretty nice day and an interesting experience which I quite enjoyed.
