    Isle of Skye on Mt. Mingus, Arizona

    Been going to an annual 12 Step spiritual Retreat up on Mt. Mingus every year since 1990. Great fun. We always dance - a chore for an olde fat man at 7,700 feet.

    Main reason for posting is to show how the chosen "outfit" came out - thanks to your suggestions...purple Lewis kilt hose with the Isle of Skye from Kathy Lare and a natural white fluffy puffy Ren type shirt my daughter sent me. Lady is Marjorie...my red haired kiltie lovin' woman.










    And, someday, I might remember to zip my sporran back up after I get the camera out.

    Looks great Ron, good choice on the hose. I hope you had an excellent retreat weekend.

    Brandy, if the pics don't come up for you look in my galleries, the pics are in both.

    Skweres...its a Scottish Heart surrounded by a Navajo upsidedown rainbow with sun at the top opening and 12 arrowheads. Very spiritual to me.

    Looking good, Ron. I'm going to have to check out the Lewis Hose. But I'm pretty happy with the thick cotton hose from Hamilton Dry Goods.
