Another first time out

[McFarkus]

Very cool first outing. It's always a bonus when you can embarrass your son. Mine is 34 and is petrified I'll show up in a kilt when he's present. (I told him that it's part of my job to embarrass him.

... Cost of the kilt $150.00, Sporran, belt, socks, Flashies $85.00, Ghillie shirt $45.00. Look in son’s eyes when he realizes all of his friends are going to see him roll up with his old man wearing a Kilt on a motorcycle, Priceless...

Outstanding! What a great story. My Boys roll their eyes skyward at me too. It's good for them, it builds character!

Same with my 13 y/0. Although I did get him to be my sword bearer for the Parade of Tartans at Stone Mt.

Great first outing story. That one you can dine out on at any kilt nite.

BroosterB1 sounds like a fun first kilted outing. Ballooning in a kilt is definately a "kilt do."

Do go hot air ballooning and help crew in your kilt. These were taken last weekend at our annual Hot Air Balloon Rally. This is the balloon that we sponsor. This year's theme was "Irish Eyes are Flying". There were several Sport Kilts and a couple of tanks Saturday evening.



This is setting up after the evening flight in preparation of the Balloon Glow event. Unfortunately rain set in and we had to take down sooner than normal for the Glow.

I am the opposite. I embarrass my parents and siblings with my kilt.

I know what thats like it doen't embarrass them so much as they just don't get it.

Great story!!


My dad, brother and I embarass the heck out of mom whenever we go out kilted. My girlfriend was embarassed too until her cousin got married kilted and she saw how sharp a bunch of kilted guys can look. Even got her to cave and accept that when we eventually get hitched, my brother, father and I and every other guest with a kilt will be wearing one that day.

Enjoy the kilt!

Those are some great pictures! I was born in Los Alamos and grew up in Chama. I remember more than one occasion going to those rally's. How much fun they were... I would love to take my kids to one some day.
