    Brad,

    If I remember right, your kilt is like 2 or 3 down the line right now. Your patience will soon be rewarded.... :-)

    Matt, once again it was nice meeting you and your family. It's great to see a whole family getting kilted!

    Welcome to Xmarks. Make sure to check out the section of Kilt Nights. I'm pretty sure that there are many per year in Raleigh and since you seem to like to drive there are also many in Greenville, SC. I don't live down there anymore but used to live in Cary. Congratulations on the new purchases and we will all be looking forward to the pics when you get them.

    Just remember, a man in a kilt, is a man in a half.

    Matt - just got back from breakfast with friends in New Bern. Wore my chocolate brown X-kilt. Know you will get a lot of use up there in Chapel Hill, you're not the only member in the eastern side of NC.

    Enjoy the freedom of the kilt!!

    from the Scottish Borders.

    That sounds like a really great day out - visiting the tartans museum AND ordering kilts for father and son.

    Man, what a great story and a great day.

    That's the kind of day that just lets you know that God's in his heaven and all's right with the world. (That's not a religious discussion, it's a quite from Robert Browning.)

    We'll look forward to seeing pictures and perhaps you in person at one of the games this year.

    Matt,
    Wecome to Xmarks and to family kilting.

    I live in Asheville and teach at the local high school, but have served as an adjunct instructor at UNC-A many times. If your daughter ever needs an "adult" and you can't make the trip up, my wife and I would be happy to help out. We've a son who will soon be off to college, so I imagine it would be some comfort to have a trusted adult in the community in case of an emergency. There are several on this board who can vouch for us.

    Next time you're up this way give me some warning and we'll throw together a kilt night.
