    Encounter

    Rocky, I have to pass this along. I was picking up a few things at the store and I was wearing the Hamilton. An elderly lady came up to me with a huge smile on her face and said it looked wonderful. She immigrated to America just after WW II from Scotland. She commented that the kilt looked very well made and I told her about poly/vis and some of the other materials being used instead of wool. She was delighted that such changes were happening and that the kilt wasn't completely relegated to stereotypes and costume. I, of course, mentioned you and USAKilts. I'm under orders to tell you "Fine job, keep it up".
    Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life take big bites. Moderation is for monks.

    Bubba,

    I would say you ran into a fine lady.

    Thanks for passing along the compliment! No worries... we're not going anywhere any time soon.
