2nd Kilted Hike
My wife and I took a hike yesterday off the Blue Ridge Parkway and I decided to try it kilted. She snapped this pic while we were resting beside Boone Fork Creek. There were a few leaves that had already changed color and there was just the hint of a nip in the air as the day wore on. Fall is coming! We stopped to eat in Banner Elk and as the waiter left our check he said, "You know, I never even think about kilts since I see so many of them." Apparently they have a Bagpipe major at Lees McCrae College there in town where he is a student and kilts are frequently worn. All I got was a few smiles all day and a few looks but no other comments and that included breakfast at Cracker Barrell. My son was with us then in his new Fraser USA Casual. He opted out of the hike unfortunately. Also, we passed a couple of women on the trail and one had a t-shirt that said, "Hike naked, it'll put color in your cheeks." I thought as I passed her that if you can't hike naked, the next best thing is to hike kilted!

color in which cheeks?! The ones on your face? or the ones on your butt? 
Inside me is a thin woman screaming to get out. But I can usually shut the b*tch up with chocolate!

The secret is getting out. Kilted hiking is great. Planning a little river walk myself today. O'Neille
Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come. --William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

It really was a great weekend to be on the trail. It was gorgeous here in GA and a few of my maple trees are starting to turn red. Maybe we'll run into you on the trail someday.

I believe that would be the ol' buttissimo. Pass the Body Glide!
