Cottage by Glencoe Ski Resort

Well another wonderful day stopping and starting the car, and the camera. It started off fine at Auldgirth, just north of Dumfries on the way up to Fort William. Drove most of the way on the A82, having first driven over the Lowther Hills picking up the A74(M) to Glasgow. Drove all the way through the heart of this city, seeing bridges made famous by the BBC using them as backdrops to their Glasgow Studio News Room.

As I was leaving Glasgow, turned took early and shot off down wrong side of the estuary before picking up the sign for the A82. This road zig-zags it way along the edge of Loch Lomond. Ben Lomond was shrouded in cloud this morning. Tea stops at Tarbet and Glencoe Ski Resort.

Th last 14 miles of the trip to Fort William was in driving rain. however, for all that the house I'm in has an almost 180 degree view of the mountains on the far side of Loch Linnhe (there might have to a correction for the Loch and addition for the mountains). Managed to walk almost 6 miles today!

When you look at all this grandeur, this majestic architecture of the mountains and wonder how did the creator make them all. In the the Hitch Hiker Guide to the Galaxy, the creator said to Arthur and Ford Prefect that the bit he most enjoyed creating was the fjords. well I can image God saying much the same about these mountains!
