For those of you who've been jonesing for your kilts, jonesing for your pins, jonesing for your T-shirts, I need to say this:

Your jones has nothing on mine.

In approximately 40 minutes, I turn my house over to a friend of mine and get into the airport shuttle to head for Scotland for a two-week whirlwind tour including Edinburgh, Dumfries, Glasgow, Stirling, Oban, Inverness, Aberdeen, and St. Andrews.

Yes, we're taking pictures. Yes, I'll be wearing a kilt for at least part of the trip. Yes, we're going to visit P1M in Dumfries.

Talk to you all in a while...
