Why would you want to see that?!

Well, I’m planning on bringing my kilt if I make it there so

This is what I think of if I think kilts.

Well, if you want us to try to play those things, go ahead and bring one or two.

Those kilts cost about $600, not to mention the rest of the uniform and equipment.

Too rich for my blood.

Being that my family came from the Clan Lamount, I could get one of their three tartans, but then there is the $400-$600 for a proper wool kilt.

Plus, they would hot in the summer. Scotland doesn't get as hot as it does here. So, they can get away with wearing what is basically a wool blanket year round.

It's exciting to see interest pick up. I hope to do a post tomorrow outlining some of the things we can do over the weekend. I have mapped out a scenic drive. There are also a few interesting sites to visit in addition to the visitor center at the bridge. Let me grab my notes and finalize them. Then you can start thinking about what activities you are interested in.

I'm pretty sure @Robert Mangrum said somewhere back there that he planned on being there.


Edit:

Just talked to Corey. So I have the go ahead. The other event was my daughter's fall break. She informed me I wasn't invited on their camping trip. Its "girls only" trip. Haha. So date doesn't really effect anything. So count me in.

I will update. But plan on booking a site Friday. Sorry I've been behind. Remodeling master bath and trying to get things wrapped up around here has been a whirlwind. I will sit down and see what I have spent this week and go from there but will for sure book a site by Friday.

I could get you wool cheaper than that... we literally throw it way.

Irritation is my specialty.

Edit:

He is probably regrouping trying to find a kilt like everyone else...

UT Kilts, best deal out there for a decent utility kilt that won't fall apart after a couple of washes. Most of the ones on amazon are made in Pakistan and you get what you paid for.
