    Hey Red!
    I was at a Panda Express before going to a rehersal and I spotted one of Utilikilts 'sport kilts'. Also at our celebration at Fibbers on NYE I meet a Scot in his kilt, he was glad to find out he wasn't the only one Kilted that night. Sorry I had too many pints to remember his name (I wasn't driving that night)
    In one ensemble we're playing Malcom Arnold's "Four Scottish Dances" I'm thinking of showing up to a rehersal in my SWK.

    By the way, Nighthawk, are you going to be... inflicting that wedding, or are you just observing? I haven't followed the details too closely. Good luck either way, and I hope you enjoy your visit.

    THAT day...back when...in Phoenix...wearing pants, shirt, tie...123 degrees F. Asphalt melted underfoot....

    Summer is the time to market kilts in Phoenix...

    There must be some common sense left in even the most smog addled brains down there....

    Wearing pants is like tossing a blanket over your air conditioner.

    OK- no, I will NOT be inflicting the wedding this time around- only attending. The Rev Nutjob is just an observer.

    And folks, I will be in town on the morning of the 11th. I would LOVE to get together with the whole lot of you.

    Nighthawk, that is the best time of the year as far as weather out here. A tank would be fine... SWK wool, what ever you want around that time. My best friend had a medieval/ren wedding in the first part of May a few years back and a lot of the people were wearing belted plaids. I was in a humble tunic because I was a hermit and I got to stab the rosted pig to begin the "Feast of Gluttony"...

    The worst time is toward the end of June and into July because it isn't a dry heat any more as the rains come again.

    ** On second thought, see Retro Red's post down there on the weather. We all have sun madness over here and forget sometimes...
