today we drove down the side loch alsh, across to loch garry, loch oich, loch lochy, loch linnhe, up through glencoe and rannoch moor in the pouring rain, then down along the banks of loch lomond.

it was a long journey but a stunning one.

however i was too busy driving and being irritated at caravan drivers to take any photos so this is of the trees beyond the back garden where spring was back in force with a sun/showers rollercoaster and the view is of nothing but leaves.

the kids are tired but happy. i want to find a way that we can all be just a bit less controlling of each other. i suppose the best way to start is with myself. damn.
