    Kilt in Church

    I was set in as an Elder at my Church this last weekend and wore the nicest thing I had in my closet:

    I realized that I forgot my kilt pin, and there wasn't time to run home and get it.

    I wore my black boots because I didn't have a good pair of of black shoes, but my wife really likes the boots with the hose scrunched down, so...

    I've worn the kilt enough now to convince her I need to add to my collection, and with winter coming on I hope to convince her to let me spring for a wool one, hopefully a Farquharson.

    I few people question the kilt, but my wife, who was at first unsure of my wearing one in the first place, has become my biggest supporter and defender. One of the overseers of our church barely hinted some question about it, and she piped up immediately with, "I don't have a problem with it".

    Good woman.

    Here's one with the whole family.

    If this is the men's department, where are the kilts?

    Good pictures nice to hear you have support, that can be very important.

    Thanks for merging the two threads. I spent 15 minutes trying to undue it, but could figure out how.

    Guess I'd better be really careful about what I say 'cuz once it's posted you loose control of it!
