    I know I'm just a naïve city-slicker, but if there are rattlesnakes lounging about, is napping among the ferns a wise idea?

    Great pics cousin!

    Good to see you and your son in Gordon tartans...and cool that there's another generation coming along to explore the fringes of kilt fashion.

    That's a fat rattler...did you eat her? They be delicious. Most folks will cringe at the thought, but if they risk a taste they'll fight you for every last morsel.

    For the uninitiatied - a plump rattler tastes like a combination of pepperoini and chicken when fried up.

    Nah...she was fat 'cause she was full of babies. Timbers are protected in NC, so collecting them for any reason is a no-no. They're not too common, so I'm more worried about ants than snakes when I nap.

    Thats why I bring my children hiking. In case of hungry snakes.

    Seriously, kilted hiking sounds good. Due to a different walking speeds I present the C&O Canal.

    That would work out great for me. I've already walked portions of the C&O while kilted.

    Because the C&O is relatively flat, it would work out great for folks of different hiking ability. Plus, there are many good access points. And for those concerned about the "wilderness" aspect, a big part of the more westerly canal is very isolated.

    Thanks for the early morning giggle!


    Glad to see you up and around, Bill. I assume that the surgery went well since you are "en brace" and up walking. I have been waiting to see you around to let you know that your reputation preceeds you...
    I was asking about you to one of my friends that works at the college, and at first he didn't seem to know who you were when he asked me if I was talking about "kiltman". LOL So at least around Montreat College campus you have been elevated to super hero status...when in danger on the trails, call kiltman!



    Oh, and tell Patrick that I'm digging the tie-dye and tartan combo!
