Well put together outfit, as usual. Sorry I couldn't make this one.

Ditto! I wish I could've joined you.

You'll have to wear that tartan next time we meet. It's a beautiful tartan.

Sounds like a great day!

We went out last night, too. A local bar was having a "Beers of Summer" tasting, so it seemed like a good excuse to put on the kilt and celebrate the Repeal.

While there we ran into an acquaintance of my wife's who, it turns out, owns a favorite bar of ours - one which happens to have an extensive whiskey selection. She and her husband liked the kilt, and said they would be sure to let me know when their next whiskey tasting would be. Sounds like a good excuse for a Chicago Kilt Night, no?

You do know how to celebrate, and look good at the same time.

And, I greatly appreciate the pint! The way things were going yesterday, I'd have gotten to the pub just in time to turn around and head back home - it was that kind of day.

I wore a tartan tie to work, then had a pint and a bit after dinner.

Looking forward to the next excuse to visit the Fredericksburg Pub.
