Scottish Isles in National Geographic

[ScotFree]

I ran across an interesting article in the August/September 2012 issue of National Geographic Traveler magazine. Its entitled "My Scottish Obsession: The rugged isles of the inner Hebrides mesmerize a flatlander from the Midwest" Story and Photos by Jim Richardson. Being a flatlander from the Midwest myself, the title caught my attention. Its about this gentleman's pilgrimage to the Isle of Muck (amazingly yes there's a place called Muck ... apparently 1/2 way between the bonnie isles of Skye and Mull). The article features a great narrative of his trip and some nice photos ... and even a Castle (like Scotland doesn't have very many of those, hmmmm?). Kinloch Castle to be specific; the former and elegant home of George Bullough, bt., who somehow inherited the island 100 years or so ago.

Thought I'd call its attention to The Rabble just in case anyone has a slight interest in Scotland [insert dancing bananas here]
