Small Offering of me in my Tank

These two pictures were taken by my eight year old without my knowledge (at first.) I apologize for the non-smile and dirty boots. I took my wingtips off since it was quite wet and muddy in the streets of Maple lake Minnesota for their annual St. Patrick's Day Parade.

MacLellan 16oz. made my Kathy Lare and sporran by Thorfinn (Turpin)





She said she wanted a picture of me in my kilt for her photo album. I can't tell if it's the photographer or the model, but something doesn't look quite right. I decided against the jacket, but wish I had worn a collared shirt beneath my sweater.


BTW, I got no negative comments or snickers. in fact, many of the people in the parade called out my "real" kilt. Many an Irish clan were wearing kilts, and they came over and posed with me. The ladies loved it!

Looking good, I missed our St. Pat Parade in SLC. Marilyn is still getting over the gomboo that is going around and I am trying not to get it. It is the Tourist season here and They bring it with them.

Nothing wrong with candid pictures, it is after all real life. You look at home and comfortable - and that's the way it should be.

Regards

You have a budding paparazzi there...keep her supplied with cameras.

"nice kilt"

We have the same taste in hand sewn kiltmakers.

Great photos. That's part of the fun with our children. Every one of our seven children has done the same thing to my wife and I,...sometimes when they shouldn't (those are usually the funniest photos.)

Nice looking kilt.
