Maple Leaf, First Week

**Dale Seago** · 24th October 11, 05:51 AM

A week ago today my Maple Leaf kilt arrived from Rocky at USA Kilts, and I wore it that evening at the Saint Andrew's Society monthly meeting. No pic from the meeting (though I was witnessed by WalkerK); but I took this shot in a mirror (which is why the sgian makes me seem left-handed) when I got home:

Yesterday I went for a stroll, temps in the mid-80s (F) in a county park in Cupertino:

I have to say that I really like this kilt!

A fine looking kilt indeed! The colours really suit you lad, and I like the combo with the gold hose. Pretty sharp!

Very nice Dale, that is certainly a good looker. It's one of those tartans I keep toying with, but just can't get the checkbook out...yet.

Saturday I was shopping at a Trader Joe's wearing this kilt with a short-sleeved olive green hemp shirt and the mustard Lewis hose. Out of the corner of my eye, I watched a young female employee talking excitedly with a female co-worker, both of them sneaking glances my way. Finally the girl walked over to me with a big smile on her face, and I prepared to address her questions about the kilt.

She never even mentioned the kilt. She was totally blown away by the hose and wanted to know where I got them.

Yet another amazing tartan I wish I could afford.

Looking good Dale. I really need to get a pair of mustard hose to go with my Maple Leaf.

That is a spectacular kilt!

Every time I see a kilt in this tartan it makes me want one more and more. Sadly, at the moment it is buried far down on the want list, and even farther down on the have a chance of paying for right now list. I'll second (or maybe by this time it may be 5th) that I think those hose are certainly worthy of stealing a little attention away from the kilt.

LOL, of course! What else would she have been wondering?
