I wore a kilt to our organizational picnic Thursday and had a great time. The only time that wasn't quite so fun fun was getting drug across the ground in the Tug of War contest (I was anchorman, so the rope was tied around me). It's a good thing I wasn't going regimental or everyone would have gotten a real show!

I went on a volksmarch this morning in a kilt and got all kinds of compliments. One lady even wanted her picture taken with me. Several people said they liked how it brought some color to the walk when people wore different outfits. Of course I got a few "Are you Scottish?" type questions, but mostly it was just "I like your kilt." This is all pretty good for western Maryland, where we have a fair amount of folks of the redneck variety.
