Welcome! This is definitely a great bunch of people to learn from and talk to. I started out much like you...I owned 1 utilikilt, then after going to a few scottish festivals I decided that I liked the tartaned kilts. So, long story short, I have two on order. And as a fellow Washingtonian, we'll have too look into doing a kilt night out here soon. Work is sending me up Seattle way in a few months...so who knows.
