    Perfect Irish weather, great smoky Scotch and a beautiful woman by my side!
    ...Oh, and a Leprechaun!

    Great photos. Did the Leprechaun pay off,...or did he leave his pot-o-gold in his other pants?

    Off topic, but...Speaking as someone of Irish heritage, I find people expressing their 'Irishness' by dressing as leprechauns (which actually should wear red coats and cobbler's aprons) more annoying than green Bud Lite and green plastic hats and beads!

    Great photos though!

    Why's the Leprachaun have to be big? Perhaps Shawhighlander's just on the small size...

    It's cool to see how little the style of kilt-wearing changes, even as fashion goes through it's wacky styles (reference the colorful leprechaun)
