n00b in Hawaii

[BLAZN]

Thanks all for the welcomes!

Looks like you are really getting into the whole Kilt thing. Don't you just love it?

The freedom rocks. Now I know what Mel Gibson was REALLY referring to at the end of Braveheart!

I am jealous of where you are stationed! Must be great to be kilted in Hawaii!

Hawaii does have SOME advantages. Though, being from Indianapolis... I think I'd STILL go kilted in a real winter.

Congrats on joining the forum, and also on making your own kilts! A labor of love for sure.

Indeed a labor of love. As in I love the look on my wifes face when I wear a kilt. ;) The looks from others are entertaining as well.

Maybe your next kilt should be the US Navy tartan?

I'm actually contemplating getting what you see here: http://www.alexismalcolmkilts.bigste...generic24.html
I'd like to have that done in the Navy tartan. I also want to get a "Dolphins" kilt pin: http://www.alexismalcolmkilts.bigste...ersKiltPin.JPG
(I want mine in silver, though, as opposed to gold)

Welcome and Aloha, I just got back from spending 5 weeks in Honolulu...I was kilted there all the time. Great place to be and hope to go back again soon.
Enjoy your stay at xmarks....
Cheers

I'll trade you places. Frankly, after having spent 5 years here, I've had enough. Actually... I had had enough after one year.
This just isn't the place for a corn fed Hoosier boy! lol

Now what could possibly be more fun than stoking the furnace on a nuclear sub?!

I could think of plenty.

So are your shipmates just as enthusiastic about kilts as you are?

Likely not... One guy even gave me a weird look when I mentioned I was a budding Rennie.

Sounds like you have to look into the Polaris Tartan story...

Hmmm... looking now!
