    Out and about

    Hello All,

    Just got back from a trip to Petaluma with my family. It was a bit cold and a bit wet, but I had a lot of fun wandering around downtown wearing my gray mocker UK. (By the by, if you are ever in Petaluma, I highly recommend Dempsey's microbrewry and their Ugly Dog Stout.) I got nothing but smiles wherever we went. One couple in their 60's stopped to ask me about why my kilt wasn't a tartan one. All in all a very pleasant maiden voyage into going out and about in the real world.

    Cheers

    That was probably Elsie and her husband steering you toward a more traditional look. Good to see you took the hint...
