    Man, in those pictures, it looks like you are about to bury something... or somebody.

    Probably myself. I've been battling either the flu or a really bad cold all weekend, and it was in the 30s outside. With the fever I've been running I felt like I was going to freeze to death

    Jerry,

    Sorry to hear that you haven't been feeling well. I tend to agree with mbhandy. I tend to wear my SWK's higher than either of your pictures, and they hit me at the top of the knee to slightly below the top.

    Darrell, I usually wear all of my kilts higher than either of the photos. The first was close to where I wear jeans and the second was ridicously low, almost like some women wear jeans, right on the hips. This would not work at all for me unless I used suspenders (braces for the Brits).

    Hay, it wasn't so much the look, but that combined with the shovel next to you.
    Hope you fell better.
