Then two things converged in my life. To honor my dad I decided to do our family genealogy and discovered most of it lead back to Scotland, Ireland, and Wales (surprise!!!!) AND I discovered MOTG on our local PBS station. The stars came into alignment and I realized that a kilt could be worn at any time. Finding XMarks gave me the courage to say "why not me?" and links to resourses like SWK and USAK made the whole thing economically possible. Like many here, I want have the wardrobe that would allow me to wear a kilt every day of the week...
