Ah...the great Southern Grocery Store Rush! Even here in the NC mountains the threat of snow sends everyone to the grocery. I've often wondered what they do with all that bread and milk!

Well, it looks as though the forecasters really blew it! The GREAT BLIZZARD of '08 immediately simmered down here north of Atlanta after the first few flakes. Cold tonight, but apparently the moisture missed us. But, in going to the grocery I found a convert who has now contacted me by email for the purchase of his first kilt via a personal delivery! At least that will be ONE other local around these parts to join us.

When it happens here, we've decided that everyone in Columbia is having milk toast for breakfast! NO snow here this week, but it's right cold out. Wool hose are in order.

I've seen that same rush in Washington DC, Viriginia, and Maryland. People fighting over the last loaves of bread.

IF there is a connection between the cold and the sudden rush of kilt orders of late, I AM HOPING FOR MORE SNOW! Maybe it's just people being stranded inside and doing some dreaming on the internet, but there is nothing wrong with the prospect of a new kilt to brighten a day. For myself, I's eagerly anticipating a new dagger sheath to be hung below the kilt belt and our good friend up in Jefferson, GA at Oconee Leather has been MIGHTY helpful! Now back to shipping! I love to tell the story, of kilts in all their glory, Tis sure an old, old story........!!!!!!! Sung to whatever tune you prefer,

They do the same thing here in St. Louis and I always wonder the same thing.
