Spring in Skye and Inverness

[caig]

I have just returned from a week's holiday in Skye and Inverness. The weather was unbelieably gorgeous - no rain and bright sunshine for most of the week.

Please forgive me if these pics have been posted before.

At the battlefield of Culloden there is a new visitor building being built and the battlefield itself is being restored to it 1746 state, so half of it was unavailable.

The new centre will have the "Culloden Walk" which is a walkway on which people or organbisations may donate a stone of varying sizes, with your own inscription, franging from £75.00to £1500.00. See this at cullodenwalk.org.uk.

Is there any desire on the part of X Marks members collectively to buy a stone with our inscription ?

Great pictures, thank you for posting them. I think that the possibility of an xmarks stone has been discussed. Unfortunately, for me the pound is so much stronger than the Canadian dollar that a donation like that just is not in the cards right now.

Wow - great photos... I feel like I'm standing right there in front of the memorial. Thanks for posting!
