While visiting our dear friends on their little farm

outside of Inverness we got to enjoy a lovely time

and got to cuddle with Morgie the Cat!!

 

 

Morgie is a sweetheart!

 

 

 

Snoozin' time!

 

 

Lots of sheep in Scotland!

Two Ewes...

 

Two Chickies...

All I need is a Hippo...

Hint: October Birthdays

 

 

Lots of lovely apple trees...

 

 

Poly tunnel winding down for winter...

 

The nearby pond... 

 

 

Complete with lily pads and blossoms...

 

Looking at the croft from the south

end of the property...

 

 

A garden would not be complete without
a sunny spot to sit...

 

Now off for our very long walk...

more on that another day!

Cheers and do thank Steve for Feline Friday!

Yesterday's Short Walk to Muir of Ord's Distillery September 22, 2016

 

Russell's watching Toni and Andrew's neighbor Marge

shifting her sheep from one pasture to another... 

 

"Oh yum, more pasture to devour!"

 

 

Old hay ring and harrow.

 

 

It takes us about 30 minutes to walk

into Muir of Ord from the croft.

This day we had to search out the tastiest

single malt whiskey for Andrew!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Russell chose Glen Ord's Singleton 12 year old whiskey.

Which Andrew approved of immensely! 

 

 

 

 

Before dinner Toni and I chose

Gin and Tonics over the Whiskey...

And then had a lovely fish dinner

prepared by Andrew!

Topped off by Lemon Meringue desserts

 made by yours truly.
