    I Should Do This

    I know I've been posting elsewhere on the forum, I figured I should post here as well. I've been wearing kilts every since discovering that a portion of my family is of Scottish descent. Sadly I am the only one in my family who really cares but it lead me to this wonderful world. My first kilt bought was actually a full eight yard non stitched BlackWatch at the Maryland Ren Faire. Sadly I don't get to wear it often due to lack of space to actually assemble it, though Faire season does grant that on occasion. I also own two Sportkilts that I use for Kickball and look forward to receiving my USAK for my wedding in April.

    I served in the Army for six years and have stuck around the DC area after I got my discharge.

    My future wife and I are moving to Houston in May and hope to meet the many of you who are on this board.

    It's a great pleasure that I have found this board and all you wonderful and helpful folks.

    from Chicago. I used to get to DC pretty often when my son was working for XM Satellite Radio. A great city.

    Glad you found us Shane!

    What are you into with regards to your kilt and your Scottish heritage?

    Scottish dancing? Genealogy? Scottish games? Flashing? lol
