I've already made a few posts - but thought I might make it official - so here goes. My interest in kilts stretches back a decade or more as I watched and listened to a bagpiping summer camp (now, sadly gone) at the college where I teach. The pipers and drummers always capped off their stay by marching in Coeur d Alene's 4th of July parade. I always found the music and the rows of kilted pipers brought a lump to my throat. Corny but true.
Recently, I decided it was time, so I ordered a Stillwater McLeod Hunting - got the size wrong - returned it - and I'm now waiting for the replacement to show up in the mail. Needless to say, asking a few questions here before ordering could have made my life a little easier. I don't think I'll make that mistake twice! I still need hose, a sporran, and a belt - so I suspect there will be more questions before I'm done.
I live and teach here in Coeur d Alene, Idaho - about an hour or so south of the Canadian border and half an hour east of Spokane, Wa. Its a beautiful part of the country filled with hills and lakes. I can't wait to stroll through it all in a kilt!
