Kilt-friendly places?

[bubba]

I AM supposed to go through Wisc with a tour of architecture buffs in June...any good spots to stop and at in Little Chute?

Nah, there's nothing much in this town. On the other hand, Appleton is just down the road and there is some nice old architecture there. The first home to use electric lights is there along with the Lawrence University chapel. As for Little Chute, there's a plan to build a full sized Dutch windmill downtown. These folks take their Dutch heritage seriously.

A A,

My wife and I were in De Pere, just up the road from Little Chute, last summer. (Sorry Bubba, short time schedule and lots to do!) There seems to be lots of fun buildings on the college campus, which name escapes me.

While my DW and I were walking arm-in-arm across the bridge at rush minute, I got lots of honks and waves. Mostly from young ladies.....I think!

Having just returned from a trip to York, I'd have to add it to the list of kilt friendly places - no reaction to wearing my black Mercy kilt.

There is an old city ordinance that is still standing today: it is permitted to kill off any kilted Scot within the city walls - provided it is done with a long-bow.

As you pulled it off, I'll bring my kilt along when I go to York in September... I'll just have to be on the watch for long-bows, though (!)

I'm a new kilt wearer, and I'm stil trying to decide if Boston is a kilt friendly place. I haven't recieved any negative feedback while wearing it around some of the more progressive areas, or areas near the universities. In fact just the opposite. I've received compliments, smiles, and over heard pleasent remarks.

Haven't worn it to any of the Irish-American communities yet. Ironically this is where I think I might recieve the most negative feed back. Unfortunately, the Irish-Americans in this area tend to be a bit parochial in their thinking. Lots of followers, very few leaders, group think and such. I don't think many would recognize the kilt as part of their Celtic heritage.

I did wear it to an Irish pub last night. Was well received too, but then again I always am when I go there.

Probably University of Wisconsin Green Bay or Northeast Wisconsin Technical College
