Kilts in the Wind Pictures

I don't have any pictures of my 'Kilt in the wind' incidents. YET, at least.

But I do want to say, how cool is it that Hamish still manages to look absolutely dashing even in the wind?
What a man.

He's an inspiration to us all (& I say that in all seriousness)

Arlen (and Terry), you are more than kind but, as I said, that photo was taken eight years ago - not last week!!

Take care,
Ham.

(PS: Arlen, did you receive my recent E-mail regarding The Storrington Gathering?)

And so in the last 8 years you have lost all trace of 'dashing' or did you just give up dashing in favour of 'noble and wise'?

I didn't get any email. Dreadgerbil@gmail.com right?

Obviously this isn't me, but I saw it today and thought of this thread.
Even Prince Charles himself suffers windy days.

Thanks Arlen,

What a great shot of a man confident wearing a kilt in the wind.

And there's another aspect of Kilts in the Wind. The wind doesn have to be gusting hard.

One of my favorite pics is one my lady took of me in my Macdonald of Kingsburgh 16 ounce Strome sewn by Kathy Lare. We'd come off the Kaibab Plateau on our way back from the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. We stopped at a beautiful overlook of House Rock Valley with the Vermillion Cliffs in the distance. The wind was blowing gently up the slope of the plateau from the valley floor. It just sort of teased my pleats.

Used to use it as an avatar. Here it is in a larger version.

All these pics goes to show that despite the lad in the 42nd getting his blasted up high, it takes alot to lift a 16oz kilt

Thanks rabble for all the great pics!
