A prayer answered!

Today it was my turn to lead a walk with the walking group.  It was a five mile, 2 hour walk, starting from our house.  I planned a big circular walk to take full advantage of the wonderful views across the valley to the Lammermuirs, a good glimpse of the sea, and then later, north to the Bass Rock and North Berwick Law.  Lots of wonderful landmarks, but - and here could have been the catch - only visible with fine weather!  All the planning in the world couldn't have brought the sun out, but some suitably worded prayers did, and we walked all morning beneath clear blue skies and in brilliant sunshine.  Perfect!
A little band of deer ran across this field.  I caught three of them in my photo, but there were about eight, including a stag with a very impressive set of antlers!  In the distance you can see the Garleton Hills and the Hopetoun Monument.

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.  

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

(Not) in a vase on Monday!

The challenge this week, set by Cathy at  https://ramblinginthegarden.wordpress.com to celebrate five years of In a Vase on Monday, was to offer (Not) in a vase on Monday!  So here is my interpretation of that idea with one of my Plant Belles, which I tend to use for things I find and enjoy.  I weave bits and pieces through the metal ribs and keep them until they fall apart, or something even better turns up!  Lichen covered twigs, branches of larch with tiny cones, seed heads, twisted heather stems, anything and everything that has form and beauty.
