Hi!

Welcome from Slovenia!

Hello, Mipi. Nice to hear from someone close to the roots of my father's side of the family.

My grandfather was the 1st to come to the USA when he was a young lad. He was primarily of Slovakian descent but was from your geographical area.

Have a blessed day.

From Northern VA

Thank you for the greeting, MacShorty. Have to admit, while I live in PA, my heart is in Northern VA. Has always felt like home to me.

Know the Reston area fairly well for a couple of reasons. I did some Civil War re-enacting with the 27th Va, an original unit from the Stonewall Brigade which is still in existence to this day. Bit of a Civil War buff and have to admit that Stonewall Jackson is one of my heroes and the person I have probably read the most about. For those reasons, Reston makes me

Good chance we may cross paths one day as I do some events in that area as well.

from a former resident of Slippery Rock, PA

Glad to hear from you. The Rock -- very nice part of the state. Have been there a couple of times when my daughter was considering going to school there.

Will you be attending the Niagara Celtic Festival in September? Will be there for the weekend.

Hello there from just outside of Akron, Ohio -- about two hours away.

I 've been to Pittsburg once and found it a lovely place to visit -- even if I had to move slowly between places because *everybody* stopped to ask me about the kilt...

Hi Jeremy, was by your area for the Ohio Games a few weeks ago. Spent 4 years living in Toledo so have made many trips from Pittsburgh thru Ohio over the years. Used to attend the annual Pro Bowlers tour event in Akron when I was a bit younger.

In Pittsburgh, kilted Scots are greatly outnumbered by the drinkin' Irish crowd in town. Let me know if you ever come to the area again.

Good day to you and yours.

Thanks for the welcome, Jock. Hope to make it to your area one day. One part of the world I have always wanted to see with my own eyes.
