Friday morning walk

With the sun in the sky and a dusting of snow on the distant Pentland Hills, the dogs and I set off to recce a walk for my walking group.  I am a walk leader and have to come up with a two hour walk three or four times a year.  Not being a local to this part of the world, I do sometimes struggle to find a four to five mile walk which will take exactly two hours.  So this morning was a test run that didn't quite work out.  I got tangled up with too many golfers and will now have to rethink!

Part of my proposed walk did involve the grounds of Gosford House, because it's a place I can't keep away from.  It is a place that never disappoints, and far too relaxing to miss on a quiet, sunny winter's morning.

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.
