Jon Waterman who wrote the book Running Dry about running the Colorado River from source to almost the sea came to Page, Arizona tonight to talk about his adventure and sell his book.

It was a small venue - 50 or so seats in the Carl Hayden Visitor's Center at Glen Canyon Dam. I wore my Navy kilt because it went with my blue SAVE THE COLORADO t-shirt that Jon also sells, but didn't bring with him.

I'm in the back with my copy of his book for the signing later and the first thing he says when he takes the podium is, "Will the man in the kilt please stand up."

Of course it was to show off the t-shirt, not the kilt. But what a convenient way to find the guy in the t-shirt. I'm sure it must have caused some "kilt awareness" though.
