Did you miss me?

Just got back from Scotland and I have a few things to share with the rabble.

Jock Scot is right about the other tourists loving my kilt. Many pictures were taken by other tourists. We also had many locals who beamed complements at us. "Very smart looking!", was heard a lot. (They also liked my Montana Walking Stick made from a bison's willy!)

Scotland has so much to offer. This was our second trip, and it still holds unseen surprises.
This was taken at the Callanish Standing Stones.

The Broch of Carloway will forever hold mysteries.

The Neolithic village of Skara Brae felt like stepping into a cathedral.

I'll post more if you'd like to see them. Till then, I'll just dream about going back.
Cheers

Me too! Very nice pictures; they take me back to my trip twelve years ago. If you've got 'em, please post 'em!

Please, more pics. In fact, you can just post all of the pics from the trip.

Well it looks like you had a grand time. How soon do you want to go back? When we got back in early June all I could think about was when to go back. So much to see. How was Iona?

Iona is one of the many places in Scotland that we have not visited yet. Maybe soon.

Here is another from the Broch of Carloway.

I absolutely love the stone walls. I also love the fact that I didn't have to break my back building them!

Here is a sculpted figure on the facade of the tower of St. Clements Church at the very South end of the Isle of Harris dating from 1130 AD. The figure appears to be wearing a kilt, but that can't be right. Go figure.

I'll post more tomorrow.

Sorry Baldybrown I got you mixed up with another one of the rabble who was going to Scotland. He and his family were going to Iona. Great pictures!

Wonderful pictures! The stone walls of the Broch of Carloway are incredible - so ancient and yet look like they could tumble at any moment. Thanks for sharing. Look forward to seeing more - the pictures are food for the soul!
