Sunday afternoon

We have thoroughly enjoyed a visit today from a friend who lives in Edinburgh.  She's a very busy girl and so we were doubly delighted to have her here for lunch before she and I went for a walk on the beach and around the headland near Tyninghame.  

Our friend is a very talented artist and I know she loves colour so I couldn't resist trotting out this grated veggie salad with HFW's Asian slaw dressing.  The candy stripe beetroot is enough to knock your socks off, especially sitting next to the orange of a grated carrot.  
It's been a fine day today.  This is across to the Isle of May in the Firth of Forth.  The sea was looking remarkably peaceful after a week of whipped up white horses and crashing waves.
Further round the headland, as the late blast of sunlight began to fade, the skies were wonderful 

with a beautiful light on the sea, which was fast approaching high tide as we stepped back into the wood on the way back to the car.

The running wave uses Blogger as it's vehicle and they are changing the way a post is created but unfortunately I cannot make the new format work. I can't progress beyond the title! I cannot navigate to the main body of the post to create text. The new template has no prompts for adding photos, weblinks, to format the text, change font etc. It may be my old MacBook that's as fault but I can't do anything about that!! Are any other IAVOM bloggers who use Blogger having the same problems? I have tried, three times, to contact Blogger through their 'Help' prompt and received no feedback or contact whatsoever. This post is using the old 'Legacy' format, which no longer permits any kind of formatting of text, and so after four attempts I have finally manage...

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week.  The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds.  Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.
