Retirment Week 3
Okay, I am tired of this. I have had a cold for two plus weeks – I am tired of it. Mostly I am tired of looking around, knowing I have SO much to do, and not wanting to do any of it. Well, I need a plan, and a schedule: Tomorrow (Tuesday) Guest room […]

A couple more Castles
http://www.inveraray-castle.com/ First Inveraray Castle – Distant relatives, with an interesting history (The Scots are a rather brutal group and the highlanders the most brutal – just say’n). But today this is a working Castle with the Duke of Arygll and his family living and working there. (Watch for the Duke in the gift shop…hint he […]
