A little closer to home - Inverness and Beauly
Darkness and rain on the roof encourages us to stay in bed a little longer this morning. Eventually up about 8 - gloomy daylight through bedroom window not much earlier. Cheryl made rice cream for dessert tonight and I washed the car. Showers and left the lodge a little after 9. Roads very wet after over night rain. Rain had stopped and so we headed north through Beauly once again and took A9 skirting around Beauly Firth. Crossed ...

Jimmy's coastal walk : day 34
This is likely to be my final stint of three consecutive days walking for 2012. Soon the clocks will change, bringing dark evenings even earlier. I missed the opportunity to walk during the sunny, settled weather at the beginning of October due to other commitments. I had hoped to walk last week but a very wet forecast which brought flooding to the north made me postpone my plan.
