The cottage garden and beyond


So we start this week's Nature Friday with morning in the garden of our Torridon cottage, and some roses for Rosy.

(The roses are ever so slightly past their best, unlike our friend Rosy, who is of course in full bloom).

Later in the day I lead Gail on a wee adventure into the hills.

Yes of course I'm still up for new adventures! So long as they don't involve climbing too steep slopes these days.

Finally we're home again to the cottage to enjoy the evening scene from just outside our front gate. 

Happy Nature Friday friends!

    What a lovely adventure you had Bertie, and we know what you mean about steep slopes these days! Those are very pretty roses and we're amazed that they grow so well, so far north. That must be one of the best views anywhere from your front gate, and how fabulous that you had a rainbow too.

    Love,

    Bertie I know Rosy will love this sentence:"(The roses are ever so slightly past their best, unlike our friend Rosy, who is of course in full bloom)." I sure did.
    What a lovely way to end your day with a rainbow. Here's hoping for a relaxing weekend for you and Gail.
    Hugs cecilia

    We thought the rose pictures were so beautiful until we saw the rainbow picture! How wonderful to live among such beauty!
