    I assumed as much Barb...even with your estimate of 20 hours to make a kilt...that still equates to 5-6 hours per night over that stretch. I appreciate your sacrifice on my behalf!! There's a line we use in the Army..."Sleep is over-rated!"

    PS. For those of you that haven't seen it, the pics of the giving are posted on another thread started by Barb at: Longhuntr's New (and Old) Kilt

    Wow Barb fair gets around these days, I met her at the New Hampshire Games three weeks ago.
    Congratulations on the new Tewkesbury kilt and on having such a great friend who ordered it as a surprise for you.
