    Am I Over Packing?

    OK, so I am headed to Bethlehem for three days and I started packing this evening. I ended up with the following:

    Black Stewart - Tank from Anne Stewart
    Ancient Hunting Stewart of Appin - Tank from Anne Stewart
    Royal Stewart - SWK Standard
    Black Watch - New Casual Buzz Kilt -
    Canvas Kilt - can't remember where I got it
    I may also be taking a BW SWK Heavyweight if it arrives in time.

    Think I'm overdoing it?

    The Buzz Kilt is a new casual I want to try out, I'll post a review of it after the weekend.

    The others are so I have a selection. I am also taking a selection of brown and black accessories and various hose.

    I'm not taking any jackets other than casual as I don't expect to be dressed up more than a nice sweater. I'm taking and trying the casuals since I rarely get the chance. I can't wear a kilt all the time (to dangerous as a chef) and while I do wear it often (2-3 times a week) it is usually more formal attire.

    So what do you think, overkill for a two night stay?

    Yes, do you really need two toothbrushes?

    I've been to Middle east PA. State College. Isn't that the home of Penn State, because before I drove by the state pen. I have never seen razor wire before . I was acually happy to be back in New York.

    I really don't think so I mean you have reasons for bringing them all, so I say go for it.

    I'm hoping that as long as I take fewer kilts than my wife takes pairs of shoes I should be fine

    Actually part of the reason is to get a chance to compare the different kilts. I usually wear traditional hand sewn kilts and I rarely wear the few casuals I own so this will give me a chance to change back and forth to really compare.

    Besides, maybe they will have a prize for the guy who brought the most kilts
