The wife just wanted a quick last minute getaway for her birthday. It was a five hour drive vs an eight hours. We stopped along the way to visit some sites related to Hank Williams, so that was fun. It was my first trip there and I wasn’t too impressed. I guessed I’m just spoiled by the exclusive luxury of Longboat Key.
But, the lack of income this past year hasn’t been fun to deal with, at all. After you adjust, it’s easy to see how you can get by without a long list of things in your life. After a while, you don’t even miss them. (Much like balls?) This past year I’ve lived inside in a knee length skirt. They’re just incredibly comfortable to me. The wife grew accustomed to it years ago.
I hope your blog has helped people. I don’t comment on it as I don’t have an anonymous google account, but I’m not sure that would be an issue ?
But yes! Kilt weather! It’s funny, because I wear mine out to the mailbox. I try to time it though. Our road used to be a country road. Now it’s a shortcut to the interstate, and it’s rather busy at times. Around here it’s 90% 4x4 Pickem up trucks, and as much as I love myskirts and kilts, I’m still kinda shy considering our driveway is 100 yards long. I’ll ride my garden tractor all day in a kilt and work in the garden, too. But I’m still kinda shy in public in a kilt.
Safe travels on your trip. I look fwd to your next update.
Funny, I’ve worn a kilt for over 25 years in public and never had a negative response. Where I live near Asheville there are tones of Scottish descendants and it’s not unusual to see a guy in a kilt. When I am in the full get up I get a lot of compliments, especially from women. Not so often when I wear a utility kilt, but damn if you can beat the comfort. Get a proper tartan and you’ll be surprised at how people love it. I really started wearing a kilt daily after the scrotum debacle as trousers were vastly uncomfortable. Since then it’s been a lot more frequent even in the winter. My wife and other women say it’s the most manly garment, but I think the series “Outlander” has a lot to do with that. I’ve actually had women come up to me and ask if they can take a photo with me.
