Solstice Walk!

This was an event I was looking forward to so much! I was very afraid that the weather would turn nasty again, but luckily it did not. Mother and I drove to Kilmartin Glen - a beautiful, circuitous drive north west and then back south a ways. We arose early in the morning and met with other brave souls to wander around the sacred sites of Kilmartin to celebrate the solstice. I was so thrilled to have an opportunity to revisit this beautiful place.

Hebridean sheep. By the way those rams were making eyes at the group on the left, I expect there will be lambs soon!
