White Mountains are very friendly to the kilted
As some of you may know, a few months ago I talked my groomsmen into purchasing a few SWK Thrifty’s for a bachelor party weekend. Well, last weekend was that weekend, and might I say what a weekend indeed.
Living in Phoenix, I am not that accustomed to having people so freely approach me and discuss what I am wearing; however, that was a whole other story in Pinetop, Arizona. Everywhere we went (there were 5 of us total, all big guys, all kilted) people asked us our heritage, if we were some sort of entertainment, or what we were wearing. We even were asked for a group picture at the infamous Walmart. A couple of my cousins did not really appreciate the attention, but I was more than obliged.
One funny thing I noticed was that it seemed whenever we were wearing our kilts everyone we came in contact with was either Scottish or Irish. 
All in all an awesome trip, and I think I have made 4 other kilt lovers.

(P.S. There are no pics as it was a bachelor party, and pictures are not part of our tradition  )

What he said. We are all moved by your willingness to travel into the far lands to witness. And taking a group of disciples and converts.......well done.

Sounds like a great weekend, and good luck to you on the upcoming nuptials.
One question though...which one of you spent the weekend on the roof of the hotel???

Well, the trick is just getting them in one, then the kilt does the rest!
And we were up at a cabin, no hotels, but lots of extreme ladder golf and horseshoes!

Sound like great times. I hope some of those converts were your own crew.

Well, they all own one now, so they are at least on their way!
