Greeting from Oklahoma, USA

**Spartan Tartan** · 22nd December 10, 07:41 AM

Greetings from the great state of Oklahoma, USA! Great as it is, I am actually from Michigan and went to Michigan State University (the Spartans...hence the screen name). Currently, I am serving on Active Duty in the United States Navy.

I am definitely new to this forum and to wearing a kilt. As a newbie, I expect to have MANY questions for the forum about proper wear and etiquette. I have been reading the threads for several months learning what I could and finally decided to take the plunge and join up.

Thanks!!

Welcome from another newbie! Where are you at in Oklahoma?

**Spartan Tartan** · 22nd December 10, 09:54 AM

I am in Oklahoma City...My wife and I have several friends in various parts of TX. I never realized how LARGE it was until I had to drive across TX on the I-10 for almost 1000 miles just to get across from East to West.

Hello and welcome from Houston, TX. I once drove across Texas (from Houston to El Paso) to visit friends in San Diego, CA. It didn't take me a week, but it was easily half the trip in time and miles.

BTW, I have a brother and his family that live in Edmond.
