I'm definitely going to pick up another wool for more regular use.

... and that's how your bank account goes to zero.

Another kilted Friday, three in a row now! This is becoming a habit!

Vest from Gentlemen's Emporeum (as was last week's.), 8 yard PV budget kilt from Buy A Kilt/McDonald Sporrans in the Freedom tartan, lovat green hose.
Celebrating no-pants Friday, and feeling great!

Love the vest/waistcoat. I'm going to have to up my game.

I just checked out gentleman's emporium website vest selection....this will not be good for my bank account

For yesterday’s Kilted Friday, I donned my USA Kilt semi-trad in XMTS tartan. In processing a new resident to the community I manager, she shared how much she had enjoyed living in Scotland. The lady was on the reserve side with a German/Dutch accent and a family name of McCahill.

After work when to the local and toasted the 702nd Anniversary of King Robert’s victory at Bannockburn. A couple sitting with me at the bar; the husband shared his ancestry was Scots Irish and his Russian wife asked about the tartan. We dissected the Brexit referendum results.

A good Kilted Friday.

I've been wearing a kilt every Friday for a good run lately. This week, I happened to be having dinner with my nieces and nephew. My nearly 14-year old niece remarked that she couldn't remember the last time she saw me not wearing a kilt.

Heh, I hadn't paid any attention, but apparently she has been! I also went for a lovely kilted walk before dinner along the Lake Michigan shore. All the usual compliments and positive comments.

Another Kilted Friday, this time back in the Lovat Green vest and Ireland's National tank. New tie, this time, though. Out for dinner with my brother-in-law and niece. Bit of ribbing from him about the kilt, with him wondering if I'm going Irish next year (dressed like a leprechaun.). 'Bout earned him a kick.

About time to give the waistcoat a steaming, now that I look at it. But then, this IS at the end of the day!

Today is a day in History to be kilted, as if you need a reason.

I've pulled my USA Kilts semi-trad in Stewart Black from the armoire.

Let's see what the day brings!

A couple pals and I get together weekly to play our pipes...and, of course, solve the world's problems.

My friend Sean has been on the practice chanter for a few months now, and has moved onto the goose. Tonight, I suggested that he wear his new kilt (a USA Casual) for his first time out kilted, and we'd have a mini kilt night in his honor. He's rockin' the Clark tartan. Fun times!
