    Howdy to all. I'm from Houston, Texas, and on my mother's side I descend from the McDonalds. Which McDonalds? Darned if I know, but I sure have a lot of kilts to choose from! My great grandmother McDonald was Scots Irish, and since I don't know which particular part of the family I belong to, I wear either the Texas Bluebonnet Tartan or the Confederate Memorial Tartan when I wear one of my kilts, which is about ten times a year. Hope to learn a lot on this site and to meet some new friends. Ross

    WElcome Ross, I have fond memories of my visit to Houston, as well as San Antonio a few years ago.

    Glad to hear of your interest in kilts.

    .....and from something of a kilted verteran here on the south coast of England: Welcome, Ross.

    You have made a wise choice and I guarantee you will make friends here. This is the kilt forum to beat all kilt forums.
