An excellent article. Most reporters make missteps, but this one seems to be on point. Kudos to you, Gibby!

Turns out Margaret McConnell of Highland Heritage, where I got my first kilt, was Jimmy's sponsor to get his visa!

One alumnus was a piping adjudicator at the Salado Scottish Clan Gathering and Highland Games this past weekend - A buddy, Patrick Regan.
