The Official State Tartan of Tennessee
Chapter 82 of the Public Acts of 1999 designated the state of Tennessee's official state tartan as the design adopted by the Heart of Tennessee Scottish Celebration in conjunction with all the other Scottish Societies in Tennessee. The design is a symmetrical tartan set, using the following colors: natural white, dark green, purple, red, and dark blue.
Now this came as a pleasant surprise to me! I discovered this as I was perusing the Tennessee Blue Book of 2013-2014 that I had recently purchased. Well, I thought, this would make an interesting insert into my Bound for Scotland blog!

Progress is being made on our trip. We are now discussing places we would like to visit. God did a very special thing for me in that I now have a friend who visits Scotland a lot. As a matter of fact, she is hoping to visit there in July and will bring back some brochures for us. I continue to enjoy keeping up with my young friend, Sara, on Facebook who lives with her family there in Scotland. Looking forward to meeting her and her family when we visit Scotland next year.
