Howdy from Texas
I have already told a little about myself in my nebie question thread (was supposed to be "newbie" but I guess I couldn't spell then).
I am new to this board and new to wearing kilts. My Great Grand Father wore his kilt and played the pipes though. I only knew him for a short time - he died when I was 8.
I have always been curious and proud of our family's gaelic ancestry (both Irish and Scottish), but I haven't seriously thought about wearing the kilt until my friends and I started the Black Watch Scenario Paintball Team. For those that are curious - we have their official permission to use the name, colors, symbols, tartan etc.
In December 2007 my wife and I joined a local Celtic Heritage Society and we have learned a lot about traditions. We are very active and are looking forward to seeing what the future holds. We are planning to hold a festival later this year.
Biographical stuff:

Well, that's about it for me . . .
