    Handsome outfit.

    I like the walking stick very much.

    I am confused by the strange white distortion that fills most of your picture.

    It seems to be covering the green grass and leaves as well as the blooming flowers such as we have here in California...:mrgreen:

    Cold or sunny I hope yours was a merry St. Patrick's Day!

    Cheers

    Thanks for the kind words, gents! About 4 more inches of the "strange white distortion" fell again last night. Sheesh...!

    After coming home and posting those pics, I hung out for awhile, then headed back out in the early evening for just a bit more revelry. The highlight of the evening was when a little 60-ish woman marched up to me and demanded to know, "Are you wearing underwear?"

    "I'll never tell," I answered.

    "Well, you're not supposed to wear underwear with those," she declared, turned on her heel, and strode away....

    too hot!!

    Great pics!!
    It makes me miss Denver!!!

    Here in Tucson it was about 78 degrees all night!

    It seemed more like July than March. And people didn't tip very well either..... My wife had a few people say "why should I tip? When I get to listen for free?"

    I think I'm gonna make a card that has a picture of me with my pipes with lines pointing to the parts of clothing. And have something like


    Bagpipes......$2000
    Wool kilt......$500
    Sporran .......$150
    Socks...........$20
    Reeds
    and maintence...$150

    Practice time
    And lessons.........1 hour a day X 365 days

    Your St. Paddy's day made memorable with the skirl of the pipes........priceless!

    Is a $1 tip too much to ask???


    Sorry I got OT... I just needed to vent a little

    Looking GOOD, Brian. I dug the SUV out of 13 inches of snow and headed to Turning Stone on Saturday. Traveling was better than I feared.

    Had a great time but forgot the camera. Hope you and yours had a good time.
