A very nice set of pictures Amy. Glasgow is surrounded by wee gems like this if you know where to look as well

They really are quite graceful, aren’t they, Sassy Mamma Bear?

Oh yes, WendiKelly, please do add Scotland to your list. Ireland and Scotland do have many similarities but they both have very strong identities.

It is worth taking the time for, Kacey. Happy exploring!

That’s the fun of it, isn’t it, Neyellen? Never knowing what you’ll discover hidden around the next turn in the path…

You do see a lot more when walking than driving, don’t you, Karen? It is well worth leaving the car behind and setting off on foot, I think

Scotland has been getting more and more of these turbines, Damien, and they’ve been proving quite controversial. I’d still rather live next to one of them than a nuclear power plant tho!

Beautiful. We have a lot of those windmills near us at a place called Palm Springs.

Amy, this is beautiful and what a delightful treat! I get lost a lot being new here and all and I often discover many things that way. My favorite thing to do is run in unfamiliar places, or even my own neighborhood. You discover so much more on foot than driving. These photos are gorgeous! If a New Zealand trip is planned, put me on the list too! It’s on my Top 10 list of places to visit.

What a great find for you! I like these sheep. I can’t wait to get to Scotland someday, maybe in the next year or two. I have a friend in England that I vist. He lives in Bolton, Lancashire.

I often go on journeys of discovery in the woods and that is the fun of it all. There is always something around the corner, and I never know what I will find.

I need to do that more. Turn left instead of right. Take time to poke around and explore. Lovely pictures!!

It reminds me a lot of Ireland. I can’t wait to go back there. Maybe we will have to add Scotland to the list. It really is beautiful.

I find the wind turbines a thing of grace, and something we must accept.
We always take wrong turns on purpose to see where the road leads.

Thanks Dianne! What a beautiful blessing

I’ve heard that New Zealand and Scotland have a lot in common,Brett, and I would dearly love to visit there one day.

I was actually quite taken aback, Nicola, at just how excited I felt at being close to them. The road that we were on takes us a good bit closer, but I didn’t take any more pics. That’s one of the reasons why I want to go back!
