This time last year.

Hoping and praying for some opportunities to experience moments like these in the coming winter season.

For now. I’ll keep staying safe, listening to guidelines from Nicola and keeping faith that one day in the not to distant future we will reunite.

Looking down on this hidden loch felt like such a privilege. It’s accessible by foot path and best viewed from the surrounding ridges.

Summer 2020. Next time I’ll be on a summit might well be 2021 and that makes me sad.

Times are tough, but we must believe that things will get better and we must believe that we will be better for it. “Tough times don’t last, but tough cookies do”

I call these... “Wild Hair”

I haven’t had a haircut since February, not through choice. The first wave of the panic made me terrified of other people, this new wave isn’t doing anything to change my mind.

Maybe I need to accept that I have long hair now. This is who I am.

With Travel Restrictions back in place for most of Scotland, it feels like a really good time to explore our local hills. The Campsie Fells might only be around 550m in elevation, but they offer beautiful walks and stunning scenery!

Haven’t been out over the past couple of weeks. I’ve spent a lot of time working, which has been a blessing, but it does make me appreciate the outdoors even more.

Fingers crossed for a return to the mountains this week!
