Lindsay drove me on each of the five miles of road, and I was able to see what I'd planned to see a pied, including 'the bay at the back of the ocean' and the golf course! A gentle and interesting fellow, he and his wife will be visiting 'the States' in October to celebrate their 25th anniversary. Flying into LA, they'll drive north up Highway 1 to San Francisco, see Yosemite and Sequoia en route to Las Vegas and fly home from there. I mentioned popping over to Tahoe and driving down 395 to Tioga into Yosemite; he wasn't aware of the possibility, so will examine his maps more closely.
Bill and Mary left this morning to visit a castle or two, it's lonely here without them. Tomorrow we'll ferry from Mull to Oban after a one-hour drive, then north to look at Castle Stalker, lunch at Inveraray Castle and Gardens, finally reach Glasgow and our spend our final night. I will fly away Thursday morning, Bill and Mary Thursday night, our odyssey completed.
It has been a wonderful trip, I am grateful for the opportunity to see and experience all that I have as well as to learn more about who I am now without Chuck, that's a continuing odyssey in itself.


She'll be coming from the Scottish Highlands when she comes
ReplyDeleteShe'll be coming from Bay at the Back of the Ocean when she comes
She'll be coming back from Scotland
She'll be coming back from Scotland
She'll be coming back from Scotland when she comes
She'll be saying so long to Fionnphort when she comes
And good by to Iona's only taxi when she comes
By ferry from Mull to Oban
Then lunch at Inveraray Castle
She'll be coming back from Scotland when she comes
She'll be flying out of Glasgow when she comes
She'll be flying across the big pond when she comes
She won't be swimming the Channel
And she won't be on a cruise ship, no
She'll be flying the silver bird back when she comes
