    I'm in Hershey PA!

    Well gang I made it to Hershey on my journey to visit Rocky at USAKilts. Fairly uneventful trip other than crazy drivers and my GPS glitching and not being able to create the route once we hit PA. It finally straightened up and got us to the hotel. Hopefully up and about early to see Rocky and get my kilt. Meeting my brother and his family for dinner in King of Prussia (where there is one huge mall, I gotta keep the wife away lol). Haven't decided if I am going to surprise them with the kilt yet or not lol. I haven't breathed a word about it to any of my family. Will post picts when I can.

    We'll be at the shop by around 10:30 AM tomorrow (the shop opens at 11). We have a few errands to run early tomorrow morning.

    See you tomorrow!

    Well after fighting my GPS for a good part of the trip to Rocky's, my wife found dad's Garmin Nuvi in the glove compartment. We arrived alot later than I wanted to since we had to stop in Lebanon to pick up two rabbits my wife bought.

    Rocky handed me my kilt and sent me to the back to try it on, fits like a glove! had Rocky fit me out with a nice belt and buckle, some hose and a "Real men wear kilts" shirt lol. We left and visited my wife's friends in Phoenixville and then to the King of Prussia mall to eat dinner with my brother and his family. Great to see everyone even though the kids were all getting over a cold. Got a really strange look from my nephew (8) lol, but surprisingly no comments from my brother. Many good comments from workers. The wife made me walk part of the mall with her, a few ***hats, but for the most part a good time. So I have spent 8 hours today out in public kilted, feels soooo nice! Worn out so I hope this all makes sense.

    Thanks Rocky, you made my day!
