... david,

yes. this was the first time to wear the kilt at work. matter of fact, the first public appearance in a kilt. fortunately, we have a very lax dress code in my department. as well, the group of guys i work with are all fairly open minded about most things. i received the typical jokes and we all had good laugh, but they understand how important this is for me. they also understand how much i admire and appreciate my Scottish ancestry.

we're up in detroit this weekend baby sitting the grand kids. daughter & son-in-law took off to mackinac island for a weekend. tomorrow we meet them up in Frankenmuth for a bit of a day trip. this will be my first time on the road and in true public eye with a kilt.

we'll see what happens.
