    You've created some family heirlooms by snapping those pictures. Congratulations.

    Please pass along our best wishes to your father for continued good health and enjoyment of life.

    Looks like he had a good time (and some good single malt!). Happy for both of you. Do you think he'll do it again Woodsheal?

    I can't get my Dad in a kilt. He'd probably wrestle a Grizzly given the chance, but the kilt is still a no-go. Someday though...someday.

    The grass is greener on the other side of the fence...and it's usually greenest right above the septic tank.

    Such great photos of what was obviously a memorable evening for you.

    Did you have any trouble getting your kilt back?

    Thanks for posting the photos, you both look great. Both you and dad look like naturals in your kilts. I can certainly understand why he was refered to as the old Scottish gentleman.

    T'was the other way around for me... I just hated it when my dad forced me into a kilt...

    Excellent photos BTW.
