Thanks for the report, Don.

Glad to hear that you had a great day kilted in Chicago, because I'll be going to Chicago in a week & this will be my first time kilted there. My wife is from Chicago & her family is still there & we're flying in for a week for her birthday.

My wife is NOT particularly enthused about me wearing my kilts in Chicago - 1) because her Mom has mentioned she'd be embarassed being seen in public with me in a kilt from all the attention & 2) my wife thinks there'll be a lot of negative attitudes or comments from people in general. I've mentioned that there's a number of X-Marksmen in the Chicagoland area, but she's convinced I'll cause a lot of fuss wearing a kilt in the Windy City.

I've made the concession of agreeing to wear ps when I go out any place with her 88-year old mum, but when I'm going somewhere without my mother-in-law, I'll be kilted, as usual.

So, your post is very timely. It confirms my opinion that wearing kilts in Chicago won't be a problem or any big deal.

Thanks!
