Kilted for American Legion Birthday Party

[Jackson]

Greetings. I assissted in presenting the POW/MIA Ceremony at the 93rd American Legion birthday party this evening. This picture is of me and my friend, Frank "Boogie" Romero preparing for the presentation. Lots of good comments on the kilt. One lady asked what I had on under neath (a good friend, I might add, and with a smile) and I said, "Can you keep a secret?" She replied in the affirmative and I said, "Me, too!"

I hope the picture comes out OK. I've never really figured the picture thing out!

Good Job!
My guess is that there are not many kilts up in Alamosa!

Gordon, other then a piper I know who comes down from Colo. Springs to do funerals and weddings (and, not many of those), I don't know that I've ever seen one here. And, I've lived here for 40 years. I do know a fellow who is a McBean, his grandfather was one of the early fathers of Adams State College, who owns a kilt--one passed down. I don't know that he's ever wore it here. Maybe, it's my reputation, but, seems like most folks just look and go on, almost afraid to say anything. People that know me stop and make comments or ask questions.
