    A month or so ago, while shopping for a few groceries. A mother with 2 youngsters, a boy and a girl about 6 - 8 years old, stared a bit as I walked by. After I'd passed I could here the young lad ask his mother, "What's that?"... and then "I wish I had a kilt." I'm thinking to myself... someday that lads gonna wear a kilt. You just never know how people are going to be affected by the kilt, whether they seem to react or not. The impression may last a minute or years.

    I have always been an astronomy enthusiast... There is a picture of us in the June 2003 Sky and Telescope magazine standing next to the planetarium projector. It also was noted in the library newsletter that it was the only wedding ever held there.
    Marvelous! Another kilted astronomy buff! The joy of the kilt makes the wonders of the heavens even more beautiful. Here's the website I generally hit right after this one...

    I love hearing stories like this, when you see the eyes and hear the voice of some young lad wishing he was Kilted.

    A lady who comes into the coffee shop has a son with Downs Syndrome and he so much wants to wear a Kilt, but his mom is still a bit reluctant as he is growing so fast. He would look great in a Kilt.

    Thanks for sharing Michael.
