Thanks Rancher Girl,
Obviously, being from Page I know that area well.
If you've not had a chance yet you might wanna check out my kilt photo gallery. Many of the pics were taken in that part of the Nation and you may enjoy seeing the home country.
One of my first kilted outings was with my then Navajo girlfriend for her hospital Christmas party and my agency Christmas party a few years ago.
My current lady used to work in Tuba and I spent a lot of time around town. Now she's working in Hopi so its not unusual to drive there by way of the Tonalea/Red Lake/Blue Canyon area on Navajo 7. There are definately some Navajo 7 kilt pics in the gallery.
Our other way is up and over Black Mesa. Don't remember if I have any kilt pics from up there.
Last weekend we both were in Kayenta and Monument Valley for the opening of Milepost 398 by Sheephead films. We met up at Navajo National Monument. I drove over by the backroad from Shonto. I posted some kilted pics on the show me your pics forum of this board - taken at the Bitatakin overlook and in Monument Valley.
I was kilted for the premier held at Monument Valley H.S. in Kayenta. And met the Navajo gentleman who told me he owned a kilt.
So, guessing you're "urban" for now? Currently reading The Coming of Elijah about the Navajo child placement with LDS families. My Navajo girlfriend experienced that and encouraged me to read it.
Hey, with all the Scot sir names on the Rez, Navajos I've met with Scottish ancestors, and towns like Cameron, maybe the Navajo Nation could commission a Navajo Nation tartan....
Okay sorry, billaganna thinking...

"I'll have a kilt please, a nice hand sewn tartan, 16 ounce Strome. Oh, and a sporran on the side, with a strap please."
