Back from Scotland

We arrived home last evening from a wonderful trip to Scotland.

Today I've been tackling laundry, the mail, bookkeeping, emails, and other items on my to do list.  With the time change from there to here, it was too easy to rise early this morning, but by afternoon I had to have a nap.  Now my body is telling me that it is 11:00 at night, past my bedtime but I will try to stay up or I'll never adjust to the time.

I did manage to download all the photos I took but have done no sorting.  I'll randomly select some to give you an idea of the beauty of Scotland.

Leaving on a Jet Plane

Today I'm frantically gathering to pack using the list I created over the last month.

Lots to do before we depart on a jet plane.

Heading to Scotland.


Lots to share upon my return.

It must be Done

I need to take a break from blogging.

Several demands on my time plus an upcoming extended trip require that I spend less time on photography and blogging.  
I am chair of a committee at church looking for a new pastor.  
I am Nana to granddaughter #3 and her mommy needs help twice a week for now as she prepares to return to the workforce.  
I have to help edit the Vantage House newsletter for October.  
And on top of all that I need to get ready for traveling abroad at the end of this month.  

So blogging friends, I may still have time to read your posts and occasionally comment, but no posts for awhile.  Look for my return in mid-October.

 I promise to regale you then with photos from Scotland.

Memphis Fences

Went back into the files to find some fences to share on Fences hosted by Gosia.

These photos date to last January when we visited memphis, TN.

First a fence around playground equipment at Graceland.


Also at Graceland the fence around the field where Elvis had horses.


Here is the family graveyard at Graceland, notice the fence in the foreground and around the fountain in the center.


Here's view of the Mississippi from the top of the Pyramid with a fence to keep you safe.


At in the historic district there's a iron fence separating neighboring properties.
