Have you ordered any kilts yet?

Ah, I see. I figured as much.

I should be making my first kilt purchase next Friday (payday...) Been working OT so I can justify it to the lady in my life. Of course she's happy I'll be kilted so I don't know why I need to justify it!

Cool!

Know what you'll be ordering?

Btw, another member of the forum just got married last month and shared his wedding album. Here's a link to the photo showing the handfasting. Made me think of you!

Hah-dy and welcome from Houston, TX. I like to come to SA every March or so for the Alamo Symposium hoted by the Alamo Society.

I'll have to look that one up. SA is the closest "tourist" area to us. Being Texan, you know all the sayings about Oklahoma, so we don't really head up there very often. NM is too far away, and LA doesn't have much.

Texas is just too big sometimes.

Welcome from Madison, Wisconsin! You really should return to the homeland, we miss you here.

Yeah, it's been about 8 months since I've been "home." Too long if you ask me. It's so beautiful up there compared to TX, (no offense you native Texans..)
