    Every continent!

    Hey Guys,

    It's been a 'goal' of mine to try to get our kilts to every continent. So far we have sent them all over the world, but were missing 1 continent... Antarctica.

    Well, we have finally reached our goal! Kelly sent a Firefighters Memorial kilt (and other accessories) to a man who was getting married IN Antarctica. Here are the pic he just sent us... notice the Penguins!

    Fletch and the birds and another scientist behind him.

    Now, I wear my kilts in all kinds of weather but THAT my friends, takes commitment!

    That's a long way to bring in caterers, family, etc.

    Well done USAK and to the couple. I noticed the wedding guests in the background are wearing tuxedos too. Must've been very formal.

    that is an amazing acheivement, rocky. you can be proud that your talent has reached the corners of the planet.

    and i'm sorry to the other denizens of this fine forum, but those photos, it would appear, just can not be topped.

    Technically, it was Kelly's work, but we're both excited!

    No, no - check the tails. Those are definitely Prince Charlies.

    Congratulations, Rocky and Kelly.


    edit: Right after I posted this, I checked the high and low temperatures for January 28th at McMurdo : 31˚F and 26˚F. Not bad kilting weather at all.
