Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I am certainly planning on showing up for some local activities!

Monkey@Arms; i actually made it up to manassas and The Kilted Nation earlier this week. I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was a Kilt shop so close to me. I wore a UK Survival home that night.

Im torn at the moment whether or not i want my next one to be another casual for everyday wear or something more in the traditional vein. Im jonesing for a Leatherneck Tartan, but im still not really sure who i want to deal with for it. SWK is appealing as i have read countless glowing reviews on the forums here, but i have a hard time purchasing things sight unseen.

Anyone from around here have any suggestions for things to do in the area? aside from the obvious touristy stuff of course. Im up for just about anything outdoors, active, or automotive in nature.

Thanks again everyone!
