    Great photo. Looks about like what we got here yesterday. Cleaned about 5" off the truck and driveway at 10am and again about 3 pm and then 2 more just before we left for a Christmas party. No, didn't wear the kilt, don't have the jacket for it yet :-(

    Dang Ackwell,

    You look SOOOOO proud...a stranger would guess you were wearing the national costume of Finland...looks so natural on you. Great job.

    Jean jackets are another of my garment addictions...think I have about 8 of them...with different back embroidery, Pendleton blanket inserts, or colors, so they are different.

    So, how do you sit without shoving the knife handle into your gut?...or better, how would a fat guy like me avoid self-injury when sitting wearing a knife like that?

    Congratulations Ackwell, on the superb photo. You certainly look totally comfortable and are well-suited to the kilt.

    As for the snow: I am SO envious! Here in the south of England we used to have at least one snowfall like yours each winter, but that was when I was a child and young teenager - somewhere around the 1940's/50's. Nowadays, presumably due to global warming, we are lucky to see as much as ½" - and I've not seen that much for several years!

    Actually, I hope we don't get too much this winter - I've no boots suitable for wear in the snow!!

    No, Ackwell, you do not look gay. ;) I think you should wear a scarf though (says she as she sits shivering).

    Sorry... didnt get your point...
    Do you realize you made a pun? :grin:
