Well, I finally ordered it!

No, my dear friend it is I who should be jealous; I may live here, but you sir actually own more than one of her fine pieces! But I will soon, hum maple leaf, or New Mexico Tartan?

Maple Leaf is on my Kathy Lare wish list too. My ancestors were Canadian wetbacks...slipped over the line from Nova Scotia....yes, I know Nova Scotia's not on the line, its where they came from.

Some of my cousins already moved back to the old country.

Maple leaf it is! Now I just have to pry the 15 yards of 40 year old Hudson's Bay Maple leaf from my mother's stash, maybe a bribe of that black and red Cameron (Her grandmother was a Cameron).

One of the neat things about this infatuation is the information that I am gaining about my ancestors; Cameron, Moore, Hayes, Lindsay, Birse (Byers), Gordon, Knupp et al.. this is not to mention the non-Celtic roots; Van Orsdal, Olsen, Rassmuessen, Intaligo, Fenstermacher, Garcia-Padilla and various Native American and Alaskans who's surnames are lost to history.

When wearing the kilt, I proudly say I am Scottish decedent twelfth ( Ephrem Byers Boston Harbor 1748) generation, along with Irish, English, Russian, German, Norwegian and Native American. In short I am an American, and I can wear any bloody thing I want!
