Oh yes, please do. The last time you were up there was a slight blip in your record of perfect weather visits. I will forgive you that - but please, please, please come up again and bring us some sunshine.
Your pictures made me curious, so I explored the island a little with Google Earth (the only way I will likely ever go anywhere). So many houses there seemed to be in the process of remodeling. Was there a disaster they are recovering from or has the place come into a bunch of money?
The Island is not recovero]ing from a disaster, Nothing Extraordinary. Over the last century the old croft houses have been abandoned and new houses built on the crofts - there are therefore many ruins, just walls. Also, despite a falling population, a lot of new houses are being built - new money is not obvious in other respects (i.e. no huge or posh cars)but it must be there for so much building to be going on.
Hello - thanks for dropping by to leave a comment. Your comments are much appreciated even if I don't always reply. They will appear as soon as they have been moderated.
I am using Instagram and Facebook a lot more nowadays and sometimes they are replacing my posts on the blog. If you want to follow me on Instagram my address is @cjohnedwards. On Facebook I can be found at Clive John Edwards but you will need to send me a request to follow me as it is not open to the public.
I don't blame you for missing them. They do look glorious.
ReplyDeleteTake care and God bless, love, Carol
I sincerely hope so!
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you miss that whenever you're not there - it is breathtakingly beautiful!

I do hope that you are back soon. I miss you!
ReplyDeleteTake care.
I can see why! I miss them and I haven't been there, yet. :^D
ReplyDeleteLook at that -- lots of silver lining in those clouds ... and gold, too. That's got to be auspicious.

Hugs,
