It’s St. Columba Day!

[M. A. C. Newsome]

It's a little known fact that the "C" in my name stands for "Columba" -- my confirmation saint!

What better way to mark the day than to wear the St. Columba tartan!

Thanks for the reminder, it sure crept up on me, yet the pictures inspired.

Thanks for the history of St Columba.

Thank you Rollo for that post. I continue to learn each day here at XMarks and I love it.

That picture and Kilt are just absolute grand, as are the photos of the St Columba Celtic Cross and Monastery.
