    I have a very sturdy, tan London Fog overcoat with zip out fur-like lining and cotton outer shell with roll up hood, MacLowlife. I bought it at a Good Will last year. I also have a shorter raincoat that is made of something waterproof that has a roll out hood too. I suppose I should have a poncho, but the London Fog is probably all I need.
    Wear them both Ted, keep the fur-like lining in the Fog and wear the shorter raincoat with its hood over top. All you will need to keep the rain and cold at bay because you don't wear a kilt anyway.

    Good point. Just wondering what is considered traditional if one were wearing the kilt.

    Up until a couple of days ago, it was still getting up around 106 F, so keeping the cold at bay will have to wait until December and January.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
