    Some Dallas Kilters

    This was at a dinner at Pappadeaux's in Arlington, Texas back in July. It has become an annual event for those of us involved in the Texas Scottish Festival, the Clan Gunn Society of North Texas, & others interested in their Scottish heritage.

    My youngest son, Jared, is the boy in front in the Gunn Ancient kilt. My oldest is to the right, also in Gunn Ancient.

    familiar faces...

    Sherry,

    I think I see Royce Perry's smiling face on the right, and is the fellow front & center in the MacDonald tartan Dan Patz? I haven't seen Dan since August, 2002, when we were at a meeting in Tulsa!

    Cheers,

    Todd

    Hey Sherry, I have a lot of Gunns and Keiths in my family from Texas (Pickton area). Came to the area in the mid 1700's. The Gunns are related by marrige, a lot of them were wed into our family, farms must of been within walking distance ;)

    We could be kin, ya never know. Edgar Clovis Gunn or Billy Jack Gunn ring any bells?

    You are correct, Todd. Royce is still herding cats, & Dan is now helping out a local kilt maker, http://www.lochstockandbarrel.com/ , as her business manager (still has the day job). They both are as feisty as ever.

    Guess it works in Texas, but when I try the kilt and cowboy boots look the image in the mirror reminds me of Dale Evans....
