Orkney and Shetland – 1996 and 2015
Comparing two trips almost two decades apart.
Edzell Castle
A 16th century castle with a beautifully restored garden.
Dawyck Botanic Garden
No point in waiting for the Scottish weather to improve! Just get out there.
Geilston Garden and Tom na h’Airidh
A beautiful garden and a boggy walk.
Torwood Castle and Tappoch Broch
A pleasant walk to ancient ruins.
The Dunmore Pineapple
Could you keep a gift this size secret?
Reflections Enroute: Meeting Corinne and Jim
My first real-life encounter with fellow bloggers.
Cairnpapple Hill
A Bronze Age grave and other ancient sites.
A Glasgow summer?
An amusing (and apt) definition.
3 Day Quote #2: Proverbs
In which I learn that you can’t go back – but life goes on.
3 Day Quote #1: Nature
A quote, a walk, and a bench. Three challenges in one!
