    It's a mystery at Mystery Bay SP

    Early on Friday June 26, 2009 two (2) men in kilts met at Mystery Bay State Park on Marrowstone Island, WA. History has never recorded such a meeting before in that place. So this must be a first! How did this happen? It's a mystery!
    I was doing some HDR photographic work when along came Will and his dog. At first I didn't believe my eyes, but sure enough Will was also kilted and walking his dog. We had a conversation about kilts, black powder and XMarkstheScot which he had never heard of before.
    I'm wearing my latest kilt a RK made of denim. I've been wearing it for several days on this trip so I can decide how well several "improvements" work. More on that later.

    I love those haphazard unplanned Kilt meetings. They are truly grand.

    That's a great story! It really is a small world sometimes.

    Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

    I think it's always a bit of a thrill to encounter another kilted person unexpectedly. That seems like a highly unlikely spot. What luck!
