What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

Me-Now-Views; Less Speak More Peek

Another archival re-post; this from when Mara was visiting from Norway...
That up there is Stirling Castle.  Drive-by shooting against a glaring and cloudy sky.

We were headed for these fellows though... The Magnificent Kelpies at Falkirk.
The Mac-clan, well half anyway...
Then the Clydesdales demanded attention...




"Echo the great beasts that work among us

bridled in this kingdom between canal and firth

here to harness the river carry each weary traveller

Bow down your strong heads to taste the water

Stretch up your long necks to face the sun"
