    Am I Blue? Yes NAVY Blue

    With the US Navy Tartan in last week, I was pleased to think I would get back from my trip to San Diego next week to see my new Kilt waiting. Imagine my surprise when Rocky called to say it was ready if I wanted to come pick it up. So, road trip on Saturday, and I have my new US Navy Kilt to wear on my trip to San Diego. To top it off, on the way back, I stopped at Sly Fox brewery to pick up something to take to the Homebrewers meeting and the Army/Navy game was on the the tube and it was 4th quarter with Navy in the lead.

    As usual, the semi-traditional fits perfectly and hangs beautifully. Pictures obviously don't do the tartan justice, but the colors are just stunning. As requested, it is pleated to stripe in the military fashion. Once again, the customer service and just downright friendliness of USA Kilts comes through and I get to wear my new kilt on my trip instead of waiting until I return.

    So, without further ado and much boasting, here are two shots of the new kilt.



    And, so you can see the pleats:

    If they outlaw guns, can we go back to using swords?

    Now my jones has kicked in. I hope mine shows for a party on the 21st.
    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
