The Old Scottish Man

In May I attended the Highland Festival in Alma, Michigan. I arrived, not expecting to see so many old Scottish men showing of their shapely, beach ready legs in tartan kilts. This was one of them, though he was obviously a modest old chap, because one can only see the small amount of leg between his stockings and his kilt. I must remind the reader, of course, that a kilt is different from a skirt in multiple ways, with the main reason being that one does not wear underpants with a kilt. With this in your mind as well as all the...delightful images that come along with it, we shall change the subject.
This old man was watching a herding dog chase fluffy little sheep around a field. As shown in the photo, this old man is wearing a little green beer tent bracelet which demonstrates that he is of drinking age, which is below a minimum requirement to be observed for the Silver Fox Observation Deck. Yes, this old man has probably been drinking Scotch and eating strange parts of sheep and goats like any true Scotsman. I am unsure of the tartan on his kilt, but surely he is from a fine pipe-playing, fighting, spendthrift Scottish family.
