I just returned to New Mexico from celebrating my Mom's 90th birthday in Maryland.

I flew both ways kilted, and both times I was singled out to participate in the new TSA expedited screening,...

Based on Mattie's post maybe we should have both the Federal and the Confederate Tartans present? Anybody out this way with a Confederate Memorial Tartan kilt?

The tartan is the MacDuff Ancient Hunting, an 8 yard kilt crafted by Kathy Lare of...
