It's refreshing to me to read the posts of those who are new to all this, it gives me back some of the excitement I've lost through the routine of a thousand days of kilting
Well said Chris. I'm not as far down the kilted road as you and others on this board - but gone is the heart pumping excitement of those early kilted adventures. I guess I'd say I've become comfortable in my own kilted skin. I've had most of the first time experiences and handled most of the questions at least a few times by now. I will confess that when I see my kilted shadow following me down the street - it still sometimes brings a smile to my face. Its nice to know I've finally given myself permission to celebrate my heritage in a kilt.

Comfortable indeed.
