So? What did you end up wearing?

Congratulations on your placings as well!

I started out Saturday Morning competing in my MacQueen kilt from Frugal Corner with a Tilted Kilt t-shirt.

After the competition on Saturday I changed into my Saffron kilt from Stillwater with a Irish Marine t-shirt.

Sunday I wore my Clark/Clergy from Frugal Corner with a New World Celt t-shirt.

Glad to hear you did well. My wife's pipe band did not. Now to get ready for Jacksonville.

I went by what I thought was the athletic tent about noon, but I wasn't sure I was in the right place and wasn't sure who I was looking for. Ah well ... next games ...
