    Good story Glen. The cutting edge of fashion for sure.

    Hang on PB. The Hopis are dancing. You'll have that rain soon. Coming off the mountain from Flagstaff this afternoon it was as heavy as I've ever seen it rain inover 30 years of Arizona monsoons.

    Graham was his name, didn't catch the family name. He actually lives not too far from Dumfries, I forgot the name, but his maternal Grandmother lives there.

    great story...almost impossible to go anywhere without a few good conversations due to the kilt! Usually, that is not at all a bad thing!

    Nice story. I agree that the kilt seems to open conversations with folks that may not start.
