    Hey Guys,

    Thought I'd finally show some pics of myself! We did a photo shoot in a nearby park (Valley Forge National Park) last week... it's not the GRAND CANYON like Ron's pics, but we had to work with what we have close by. We're going to be doing a WHOLE bunch of stuff to our site in a few months and wanted to have some nice (semi) professional photos, so we got the best looking models we could find...

    R - Jim Diener (customer and good friend), L - Kelly's dad (Rick) and Center - Me! Here's a couple pics we took and some video of Diener playing his pipes in the park:

    In the FIRST picture, Rick has on the Stewart of Appin Hntg Anc., I have on an olive tweed with a grey check (jacket and kilt) and Diener has on the County Derry tartan.

    Diener's jacket is what we call "Tweed Loden Fen":

    Rick's jacket is what we call "Tweed Green Lovat"

    My olive tweed is not pictured on the website yet... although it will be a new "standard". It is actually a bit more "green" than it appears in those pics. The sun makes it look more "Brown"

    In the pic of me in the Prince Charlie, I have on the MacKenzie tartan.

    Rocky,

    Though I think a PC might be a tad formal for a stroll in the park, the pictures of the three of you look great!



    Cheers

    Rocky,

    I LOVE the tweed kilt suit you are sporting there -- I hope you got more pics of you in it.

    But the pic of you in the PC -- while it looks fantasitc, please take off your belt! I keep trying to convince people that the PC looks better without a belt, and good looking guys like you and Sir Sean wearing a belt with a vest doesn't help make my case!

    I do have a few more pics of me in the tweed suit, but I want to save them for the new site's unveiling in a few months. Can't let ALL the cats out of he bag. ;)

    The belt with the PC and Dress Sporan... I PERSONALLY like the belt with every kilt I wear. Granted, I don't wear dress sporrans (I have a "head on" Badger for formal functions), but I just feel more "secure" with a belt on. I also think it makes the kilt look better in the fact that it visually breaks it up (doesn't look like it sitting so high since the belt breaks up the front view at the naval).

    Also, we're going to do a "Premier Kilt Package Deal" and the belt is going to be included in the package, so I took the picture with the belt on...

    Glad you like the Olive tweed outfit so much... I'm a big fan as well. I think I may have to do a pinstripe one next... maybe navy with grey pins, a white shirt, grey tie and hose... Hmmm...
