Your Favorite Kilted Memory

[Bog Trotter]

I would have to say that my favorite memories in the kilt were my wedding, Christmas Eve services, and the Highland Games. Good memories were always in the kilt.

When I turned 40, my parents, brother, and sisters all chipped in and bought my first kilt as a birthday present: Black Watch tartan, made in Scotland by Lochcarron. Best birthday gift I ever got, even though I officially turned "middle-aged" that day...!

I took my son (then 7 years old) to the 2007 Pleasanton Gathering and Games. He had never been exposed to Scottish culture or kilts. The first kilted man he sees, he asks me, "WHAT IS THAT?" I proceed to explain, and without missing a beat, he says, "I'm Scottish, so where's mine?"

I had to buy him one on the spot.
