    Crossed back into the USA today. The guy at the check point asked my business in Canada, I told him, and he replied, "if you wear dainties under it, it's a skirt." He suggested I check out Utilikilt in Seattle. Said it was a good place. Small world, ain't it? Earlier in the day at Wreck Beach in Vancouver had a talk with a guy who ran me down to ask about my Mountain Hardware hiking kilt. Told him to checkout Freedom Kilts, and pointed toward Victoria.

    Hope DixieCat is OK. Whizzed through Vancouver airport, kicked her out on the curb and took off. The last I saw of her she was woefully dragging her luggage into the terminal.

    Took me 18 hours to get home. First flight out of Victoria was cancelled and all downhill from there. . . But home safe and Bob loves the almost-kilt! Now we have to get moved so I can take time to finish it. Hope to see it debut at the Ventura Games in early October.

    Aargh! You could have almost driven to home in that length of time! Glad you finally made it.

    Took me a while to get this off my iPad and posted but here we go. PlaidPreacher (aka Robert Adams, in his best High Church persona) reads from the Gospel According to Saint Barb. . . (that's BenningBoy/David in the background)

    Here is a pic we got in front of the shop after the pub night.
    Barb, is it okay to post the ones we took of the three Kingussie kilts?

    Macman, Just noticed your tag line. I didn't realize you are a MacPherson. Me too (McPherson)! So glad I met a cousin, even if I didn't know it at the time.
