    Wish I were there. I love Mt. Gretna. My wife and I stayed at the Mount Gretna Inn for our anniversary several years ago and we didn't want to leave. If I could find a job down there I'd move in a New York minute. Please post pics if you take any.

    My wife took a photo or two, but it was me standing behind a street performer with a monkey!! Hmmm, what does that say? Anyway, I was surprised that I saw NO ONE else in a kilt. I thought sure at an art festival someone else would be attired. As soon as I got out of the car after parking, two ladies (singles about my age, quite liberated and just having fun with life) asked "the question". My answer was " my shoes" and I laughed. They did too. Then I said, "So, Madame, do I ask what you wear under your uhhh..... (she was wearing some sort of longish shirt over some shorts, I couldn't see that she even had shorts on!)".....and she laughed, turned and pulled up her shirt to show her butt! My wife, sister and I really laughed and I said, "Madame, I will not return the favor!" Had a few other comments from folks... "nice kilt", "nice outfit".....one lady stopped me and asked when it was best to tour Scotland....she thought I was advertising Scottish tours! It was a fun day. The art is very wonderful.....all types.

    Yours, Malcolm
