    My son took first place in a kilt contest

    My son and I competed in and took the top two spots of a local kilt contest. It was the fourth annual "Best Legs In a Kilt" contest held by the one Celtic shop in Tucson, Flanagan's Celtic Corner. There were other Xmarker's there and it was a lot of fun. The previous three contests had been won by KiltedFirePiper. My son wore a Stillwater Wallace youth kilt with a shirt, tie, and vest. He presented each of the three female judges with a pink rose when his number was called. He did great and showed a lot of personality. Here is a picture of him with his first prize gift certificate and the gold ribbon.



    I also had my wife take a picture of both of us together, me with my silver ribbon for second place. I wore my Ancient MacDonald Clanranald from Tartanweb, along with a shirt, tie, waistcoat, and my Wyvern Leatherworks sporran (which is the best sporran I have ever owned).

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Two well-dressed, handsome young men. How could you lose? Congratulations!

    I really like your son's Wallace and your Clanranald tie. And those sporrans - wow!
