    Thanks again, Sherry

    In fact, it was high on my priority list of things to do yesterday evening. I'm glad I kept that old double bed cotton bedsheet. I was going to tear it up for emergency bandages, (in the event of whatever, but once an EMT . . .), but it made a very nice liner for the cedar chest. It was a good excuse to get out a couple of heavy woolen winter coats, as well!

    As to whether to hang a kilt, or roll it and put it in a cedar chest, I've stored them both ways. While the double hanger on kilts worked fairly well, it didn't seem to matter what I placed on or around the kilts and hangers (cedar oil, cedar blocks, fresh cedar -- but no naptha!) , I occasionally had a few moths around that I had to deal with. None of those critters lived long enough to do any damage, but I figured, "Why give their kind the chance?" All of my kilts, tams, ties, scarves, plaids, etc. are now in the cedar chest. I haven't noticed any problems with wrinkles or creases, yet.
