Morning all,

Went to a Veteran’s dinner at the VFW Saturday after doing color guard for a corporate event on Friday to help honor the fell at Fort Hood.

I changed into my kilt for the event with a polo. I know you have all been through it but this was really my first casual event wearing a kilt and maybe the VFW where at 41 I was by far the youngest wasn’t the best choice for public appearance. I spent most of the night fending off the comments on my “skirt”. I tried to joke it off at first with how I had the legs to carry it off but soon I ended up just tuning them out.

That being said it has spurred the part of me that makes me want to run out and get a couple denim, other solid color or maybe a new casual kilt just to thumb my nose at them.

Jim
