Today’s photo and some extra Scotland photos

Something from the garden today – I have gear and equipment to clean and sort today, it is too wet and gray to get the MX-5 out and I have Octagon work to organise for the coming week.

Glenmore Forest Park

It has got a lot warmer today so the low snow has gone and the high snow looks much thinner. The plan this morning was to walk in the forest near Loch Morlich and have lunch at one of the loch side picnic areas. The walking was good but the high wind put a stop to the lunch stop.

The shattered ice from the loch was being blown back onto the shore.

Walking near Aviemore

It has got a bit warmer here today, the snow is melting, there is occasional rain, a gusty strong wind and not a lot of light. After watching Gravity on my iPad and dealing with a few things for Octagon, it was time for a walk in the woods around Aviemore.

I did not take my lunch or stove with me – it was back to the cottage for a pot of tea and watching the driving rain through the patio windows.
