Home sweet home

I went out for a walk today.

I like to walk in the wild, road-less hills that we look at from our front windows at the Barn.

Today, I stood on the summit of Beinn na Moine and took this picture. Home sweet home is the tiny white building exactly in the centre.

Another new website!

Our all-new Bed and Breakfast website is now live online at www.bedbreakfastskye.co.uk

Because Sue now works every weekday morning, we are not able to offer a 'traditional' bed and breakfast, so we are trying to market our apartment 'with a difference' - see what you think!

Holiday high spots

Sue and I went for a little holiday to Perthshire last week.

She made me go for a few walks...

On The Cairnwell - our first Monroe, and probably not our last (though don't expect us to bag them all!!)

We went this way down - it's the steepest ski run at Glenshee Ski Centre. It was tricky without snow, and would be totally terrifying if slithering on skis!!!

It's that "I've made it" feeling - on the summit of Birnham Hill, Dunkeld.

The summit view...

This crag provides a wonderful viewpoint over Birnam and Dunkeld.

The descent from here was nearly 1000 feet in less than half a mile, which is at least as challenging as the two mile gentler climb to get here!

Another highlight of the holiday - only the second red squirrel I have ever seen in the wild - and I got a photo of this one!

Basil thinks he's had a hard day...

Sue is taking another trip down south this week, and of course her camera has gone with her, so photos from Helen and Sophie's visit to Skye will be a little while getting on here.
