    Something Good is Happening

    Just posted a link to a newspaper article on the kilts in the media thread.

    Basically, a RETAIL and rental kilt store has just opened in Scottsdale, Arizona USA of all places.

    If that isn't a sign of resurrgance of kilted fashion I don't know what is!

    Lol I have many fond memories of Kilting it up in Pigeon Forge and Gatinburg... I would have more, but I recall some nice places to drink too....

    I love living within 20-30 min of a kilt store, even in tiny little delaware.

    Cool. I'm going to be in Scottsdale next week, and I would like to check that out if time permits. Where did you post that link Riverkilt?

    Cheers

    Scottsdale...

    14435 N. Scottsdale Rd. Suite 600
    I wonder how close that is to Scottsdale Community College? That and Rawhide (an 1880's western town theme park, lot of fun!) are my only two points-of-reference in Scottsdale -- just go west on Bell Road! :mrgreen:

    You'll be sure to give us a full report, Ron?

    Cheers,

    Todd
