    I get excited when it is rainy and cold! I don't belong in America...or at least I have felt that way since I was young.

    When I found out I had Scottish Heritage on my Dad's side, and my ancestors were from the Highlands, my whole life made sense. So as soon as the Lord allows, I'll be off home to Scotland...to live.

    As of now I am a part-time kilt wearer (but full-time at home).
    This will increase after my black leather kilt from RKilts arrives in the post.

    Full-timer (except for physical therapy visits.)
    U.S. born of Scottish and Indian descent.

    My ancestor Rev. George Robertson left Scotland for the colonies due to religious differences and was pastor of Blandford Church in Petersburg, Virginia 1693-1740. I understand his pay was reduced one year because the "quality of his tobacco was poor." I didn't realize that was in the job description.

    I'm American and I wear what I want. Outside of work that is. I even wear my kilt at work about six times a year when I can con the boss into accepting it as a cultural observation. I marked Scottish heritage although, to be honest, my Scottish and Irish roots are many generations back and I was in no way raised in any Celtic traditions. Like most Americans I have ancestors from a lot of places. In addition to Scotts and Irish my ancestors were Swedes, French Huguenots, Germans, and a few who specifically turned their backs on wherever they came from because they claimed no nationality but American. I would be wearing the kilt even without any Scotts ancestry. In point of fact, I started wearing a kilt before I knew I had Scotts ancestors.

    I had to go with Non American Part Timer w/o Scot Heritage as I'm Canadian and am of Welsh/English (not sure which... yet) descent.

    If I could I would wear a kilt every chance I got!

    American part-timer w/ Scottish and Welsh roots on my mothers side, and Irish and English roots on my father's side. My grandma on my mother's side was a Montgomery and her mother was a MacIntyre.
