because I may forget...
I am having a wonderful time with old friends and new. The B&B, Hotel Rockport, is the best on the island. The Dr. Pepper is cold, the bagels are fresh. The biggest hole in my life at this point is that Ian is not here to share.
Oh, and we're making kilts too.
Thank you all.

No Ian, truly inconceivable!

Hello to Barb, Steve, Bobbi, and kiltie friends,
Great photos! The tartans are wonderful.
I think Ian has the tartan tight mystery figured out.

Black Watch/Campbell tartan in the Wilson colours
Nicholson tartan
Douglas Gray tartan
Patriot tartan

Good morning campers,
Another fine day in Victoria!
A wet fog and a slight breeze. Gonna be a fine day for finishing. Let's get cracking....after coffee.
The morning baking is so very nice. My wife has received notice of the new standard. (Could be the last camp)

I realise the kilts are not yet finished, but it is disappointing to see that Steve's is the only kilt in view at the BBQ.
If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

Day 6 -- the Final Day of Kilt Kamp 2016, and a number of people (myself included) suffer from a serious case of "fried brain". However, here are some more photos, including one of the elusive tartan tights!
The Group Photo from Kilt Kamp, including the mail carrier who probably delivered a lot of the fabric!
Not all Kampers picked conservative liners....Royal Scot tartan
MacNaughton tartan
Okiwen seemed to think the tights would look better on her.....
Flyingpiper wearing the kilt he made, playing his bagpipes! RCMP tartan

The kilts were still being stitched, and right after the barbecue ended, folks went back up to stitch. See the group shot for some of the kilts. They look awesome!

Thanks!
Thank you so much to Bobbi and Steve for hosting Kilt Kamp, and to Barbara for attending an sharing her vast store of experience and knowledge on the Art of Kiltmaking.
This was a week full of fun, a bit of work, and friends old and new.
I am glad to have met my fellow Kampers, and look forward to crossing paths in the future... If any of you make it back this way, be sure to look me up!
