Culloden Moor Stone Wall for Friday Fences

 

While planning another trip to Scotland,

 I came across my old photos

 from the Battlefield of Culloden.

This is a significant fence photo, to share with you, my dear readers.

 

 

Visiting the Culloden Battlefield

 was the most emotional day of my stay in Scotland.

The thought of what I saw,

still evokes feelings that are hard for me to comprehend.

 

 

You hold back the tears and choke back the tightness in your throat,

as you walk the moor.

 Knowing what actually happened on the land where you are standing,

you talk in whispers with long periods of silence.

 

 

For those of you reading this post,

 all I can say is... much has been written about that fateful day.

Bungalow Renovations Continue.....

 

The Bungalow renovations are proving to be more challenging

 than first thought.

 

Isn't that the way it always is when re-doing an older home?

Duck Hunting.... for Monday's Country Backroads

 

My favorite way to hunt....

with a camera.

 

To tell you the truth,

 I had no idea I would find the Red Head Ducks,

 that have migrated here for the winter.

 

 

As you can see, I was not close to the pond.

And, as soon as I stepped out of the truck,

 they were alert to my every movement.

 

 

 

 Having enough of my camera,

 one of the males turned,

 and swam away....

 

It's the beginning of another glorious week.

Enjoy it !!

Advent is the time for preparation...

 

A time to pause and remember

the true meaning of Christmas.

Weathered Cattle Chute for Friday Fences...

 

I get very excited when I find something like this...

looking a little tired,

 but still a very usable cattle chute.

 

 

Maybe a bunkhouse or just an overnight cabin...

a place for ranch hands to stay,

while waiting for the cattle truck to arrive.

 

 

Would you not agree...

a wonderful place to take photographs.

Celebrating the Second Week of Advent for InSPIREd Sunday

 

The Candle of Love, the second candle in our Advent Wreath, is lite today.

 

German Lutherans, in the 16th century, originated the concept of the Advent Wreath.

However, it was three centuries later, when the modern wreath took shape.
