    kilted at the Atlanta zoo

    My family and I went to the zoo today and all the males were kilted. We all had a good time and got very few comments from anyone there. One comment I got was from a girl about 12 years old. She asked me what kind of food we ate in Scotland. I went on to explain that I was not from Scotland but in Scotland they eat Haggis. She asked what that was and when I explained to her what haggis was she said, with a discusted look, "thats too much information". Most comments were positive comments. We did get a few strange looks though. Anyway here is a picture. From left to right: My 25 year old son, my 6 year old grandson, my 8 year old son, and myself. As you can see it was a beautiful day and a wonderful day to be kilted.

    what a great story, and wonderful day out. Next time, explain to the girl what is in a hot dog....

    I'd rather eat Haggis than most hot dogs.
    Looks like a beautiful day.
