They Mean Well....

[Riverkilt]

Coming home from the Verde Valley Highland Games I stopped at the Trading Post in Cameron to freshen up and buy some nibblies for the road.

I'm wearing my U.S. Army tartan kilt.



Cameron Trading Post is a tour bus stop so the place is usually full of folks from all around the World. As I'm leaving a guy coming in sees me and says, "MacGreagor Clan?" in a most friendly way. I responded, "U.S. Army" and he sort of looked again, nodded, and we moved on.

But the point is the encounter with a stranger was entirely positive.

On the way down I'd stopped at the same place and as I was walking in one of the busses was offloading and an extremely attractive blonde lady in her 30s gave me a big smile and said, "I love your outfit!" Before I could respond two tall guys flanked her and led her away as they looked back at me...like maybe I was a nut case for being kilted....but hey, she knew....

Ron, we know very well that you are a nut case. Just not for wearing the kilt - you come by it quite naturally.

You never know who you'll encounter along the way. Coming out of a store this weekend, I passed a Q-tip on the way in. She was eyeing me up and down. I thought I'd get some sort of scowl, but instead she called out to me, "I like your outfit!" I was happy for the compliment, and felt bad for misjudging her at the same time.

Regards,
Rex.

Excellent Ron,
I was leaving the local Lowes on Sunday wearing my Lamont Box-Pleat and a woman said "that is a beautiful tartan". Her husband said nothing but it made my day.

Nice to see another White/Lamont clan fellow here. Seems there are at least a few of us in this neck of the woods (Virginia/NC).

You beat me to the punch. I was thinking the same thing!

Welcome to the nut case clan, Ron ! As a life member myself, it is a good clan to belong to. Being able to even make a guess about tartan names is more than most can do, so it was a good try.

Hey were all nut cases, we just fall from different tree's.

That's very true. But at least we did fall from tree's, majority is still hanging on (like Monkeys).

Ron always looks great!!!

[BEEDEE]

Yep! The power of the kilt once more.

I receive far more compliments than otherwise. Good show, Ron.
