Seattle Kilt Night 13 Feb

A grand Seattle kilt night was had at Hales Ale.



A UFO in Seattle


I went kilted here on several occasions, a great neighborhood pub.








Although I was not kilted I still managed to attract a bit of attention while running through the streets of Seattle.

Seattle Kilt Night part TWO

The UTILIKILTS store


Some planes at the Boeing Air Museum


While I was at the Boeing Air museum there was a model show and I managed to snap a few good shots.


An At At for you Star Wars buffs


POD Racing


A WWI German Tank


The former Air Force One


Commander Walker had two lieutenants give me a tour of the U.S. Coast Guards version of the SWAT team however I took no pictures of their training. The large red ship is an Ice Breaker and the other two are fast cutters.

Great shots of a mixture of things.

That "UFO" is I believe attached to the ground and is called the Space Needle.

Thanks for all the great pics. I'm glad you had a good time in Seattle. What did you think of it (as far as possibly moving there goes)?

I enjoyed the city but did not feel as connected with it as when I visited Boise Idaho almost two years ago.

People have told me that in law enforcement you have to find an agency that fits, and although I think the agency would be a fit I just don’t feel comfortable living in the city or even on the outskirts, but hey that’s what having friends is all about, going to visit them in their cities and Xmarks has been a fabulous arena for allowing me to meet fellow kilt wearers abroad.
