Ok, Ok, I know I haven't updated this in over a month. I still have to write about Conan Doyle and the Lost World...and I will, I promise, but in the meantime - here are some pictures from my summer...
The baby bird outside my office...
The longest day of the year - at the beach at midnight...
Absolute legendary camping trip with Brenda and Kathryn - tenting on the beach. Drinking hot chocolate while watching the sun set over the western isles of Scotland as you sit around your fire on the beach...doesn't get much better than that!
And then there was Skye - a week's holiday with my friend Linda, loads of sunshine, mountains, seascapes, seals, castles, and barbeques.
The Black Cuillin on a sunny day - tremendous!
Anyone fancy a farm here?
Macleod's Tables
Dunvegan Castle
That faint islands in the background are the Outer Hebrides - Lewis and Harris. Amazing to have such a clear day and be able to see them.
Coral Beach - only it wasn't coral- so beautiful!
Kilt Rock Waterfall
The Quiraing - I can't even begin to describe to you how much fun it was to drive this old cattle road through the mountains, and then to look back down where you'd been.
Ending our trip at Neist Point Lighthouse - just down the road from where we were staying.
So, all in all,not a bad summer. :)

Thank you thank you for all the LOVELY photos!!! YES, i want a farm there! (Only I just discovered Michael gets allergies on farms so that is out!)
Looks like some wonderful travels -- would have loved the camping!
Miss you!
Why, oh why, did I not visit you in the summertime???
I'm ready to go again with the best tour guide around!
lovely photos! aaaah *pangs in the heart*.
speaking of The Lost World, I read that when I was about 9, and dreamed of dinosaur heads poking through my bedroom windows for almost a month! :) I think I haven't read it since...
Ah, the summer! I forgot all about those baby birds! And that camping trip was indeed legendary. :-)
You sure know how to have a sweet summer, Beth! :-)
