The last days of summer

It hasn't been the best of summers here it has to be said, but these last few days it's as if summer is giving it its all, a last fling before the nights pull in and we get out our winter woollies....well, we never really put them away!  

Mainly Green....

......with a little bit of pink and purple.....

A Day at The Sheepdog Trials

 Don't listen to him Mary, he's exaggerating...!

The Lochbroom Sheepdog Trials. It's always a great day out. We go along and together with other Lochsiders  try and give a helping hand to the local farmers and families who run it. Tea making and serving beef burgers and home baked cakes is the order of the day and having sampled just about everything I can say it was all very tasty! The weather as expected was changeable but it was warm enough and the midges stayed away. I don't know whether the sheep enjoy it but the dogs seemed to and it's such a pleasure to watch them working with their owners. They form a very strong partnership. Thank you for all your lovely comments on previous blog posts. I don't often respond to them I know but I do really always enjoy getting them!

A Day of Summer

Out and about, enjoying the sunshine, still loving the views. Eating ice cream, and later watching the GBBO 2015...... and drawing my shoes. Perfect  really!
