Some fun with the kilt

Well I guess you have guessed that I figured out how to post photos. I have some catching up to do so here's a few to ponder.
Met this chap in Grand Central Station New York City

Angus the wee Buchanan a buddy of mine in his finest

My daughter, always ready to give me a hard time. In my Sportkilt which I wear when I'm setting up the tent etc.

Enjoy.

Did you tell the chap in Grand Central that his kilt was on backwards (or perhaps it was pleated all around). What an outfit! :-) Looks like you are having fun and have a great sense of humor.

To be honest, I wasn't exactly sure how to approach the lad in Grand Central but he turned out to be a very pleasant fellow. I didn't have the heart to criticize the outfit he seemed to be enjoying it so much.

Great shots!

I love it when people post photos!

Keep up the good work!

You have some interesting friends. I bet the little one is a real pistol.

Hi, CT – nice pics, plus an interesting side trip into asymmetrical tartan!
I especially liked seeing your daughter in her T-shirt with the clan chief’s arms, and a jacket with his crest badge.
But she will have to wear that kilt without the jeans! But since she’s a lady, no sporran is just fine.
Lovely smile, though.
A cousin of mine married a Buchanan, but as far as I know none of her children wear the tartan. I will have to encourage them!
Regards,
Mike

Thanks Mike - My daughter was giving me a hard time and just threw on the sport kilt and a bunch of our Buchanan merchandise from the tent. All in fun. To be fair to her I'll have to post a picture of her in her kilted skirt - she looks stunning in it.
My entire family wear the tartan very often. My mum was born in Scotland and brought that tradition to the US with her. She had 8 kids and with the grand children, GGChildren and GGGChildren now there is about 80 of us here so when we all get together its a pretty colorful event!

Hi, CT – it seems there are many more pictures you will have to show us – your daughter (was that her with the Buchanan plaid over her shoulder among the dancers?) and the Buchanan rabble of your (American) sub-clan!
I look forward to seeing them!
Regards,
Mike
