Hello from the Pacific NorthWest

[Charlie Mc.]

...from the far nw corner of Washington state (Bellingham to be exact)!

(until a near limb losing accident sent me home)

I am in Sedro Woolley right now. Make it up to B-ham a couple of times a week normally.

from your neighbor in Duvall, WA... Both you and BoldHighlander need to come down to the next Seattle Kilt Night...

Always happy to have an excuse to go kilted. Not sure what the schedule will allow, but let me know. My roommate also enjoys going kilted so I can probably talk him into going as well.

Welcome, Charlie Mc! I'm from Houston, TX. Did you ever attend the San Antonio Highland Games? I've been hosting a clan tent there for a few years. BTW, not all Marines go for the kilt. My boss is Leatherneck and I can't get him to wear the U.S. Marine tartan tie that I got him at San Antonio one year. But, I'm still employed.

Hey Jack,
I attended to highland games in SA more than once. Once wearing a great kilt and once or twice in a UK. Also used to hit the Austin highland games. Loved hearing Ed Miller perform. Awesome Scottish singer. To be perfectly honest I wasn't totally taken with the Leatherneck tartan the first time I saw it, but the more pictures of it I saw, the more I liked it. I know a number of active Marines who own kilts in this tartan.
