I had to drop of some stuff at the alteration shop today. After getting out of my car I saw an SUV full of young men speeding my way, so I waited to cross the street. They SUV slowed down, and I thought to myself, "I've only had one wisecrack in 10 months of full-time kilting, here comes wisecrack #2."

The window on the SUV came down and this you man yelled loudly. "you look awesome!" Then they speed off before I could say anything. I continued across the street to the alteration shop thinking that I may have just witnessed the end of western civilization as we know it.

I couldn't resist looking in the full-length mirror in the shop. I had worn my Buzz Kidder Woodland Camo, a black polo, lovat green hose, black flashes, and of course black belt, black sporran, and black shoes (shined). Everything coordinated with the kilt perfectly - not bad for a 59 year old guy. I don't know about "awesome," but I did look pretty darn good if I do say so myself.
