    I went to Skye 50 years ago. The wind blew none stop for a week. It was quite a vacation. I also visited Blair Atholl Castle and Loch Rannoch. I walked round the loch all alone and heard the bagpipes played by a solitary piper in the mountains surrounding the loch. It was a fabulous adventure but I must admit that every castle I visited in my younger days always led me down to inspect the dungeons. Now I spend my days in old western horse barns escaping longevity with the spirit of Commanche. Horses, Barns and Dungeons. Have a wonderful journey. Lots of ❤ from Arizona. ❤

    Philip I concede on the Bib Overall nagging, and am getting 100% behind the Tartan kilt choice. Who needs Bib Overalls when you can get such a traditional tartan wool awesome kilt. Forgive me I feel like your Southern (great?) Aunt that wants to help. But obviously, not necessary, lol. That tartan shop was Perfection! The Antique Store that Philip was drawn into was wonderful and all of those gorgeous bits- Steph I so enjoyed this thanks! I suppose that these special items give a rare glimpse into Upper Class Patrons of the Arts way back when- it is delightful to see even everyday objects being transported into Art. I love Antiques- I get that from my Grandmother, who kept generations of items, and that wisely thought to save specials things that we could later enjoy. I love that you both enjoy and appreciate not only antiques but traditional Crafts that go back many generations. I really enjoy The Chateau Diaries!

    I love your adventures and your singing outdoors is so uplifting. I love when people sing outdoors. I hope Phillip gets better soon. My husband shared a 3 day cold. My degrees are fine art (porcelaine and bronze and masters of fine art librarianship information science MLIS) The academic collection i worked with is 3/4 international languages. I have a private library and gallery now. I hope maybe i can volunteer 2 help u with your future personal library when Laland is prepared. My husband will bring me 2 u. He is from Netherlands as Phillip. He listens 2 all of your episodes when i watch. All the best 4 all of your adventures. I know a little girls dreams come true. I am so excited Phillip picked u the strawberry fairisle. Reminds me of london liberty strawberry thieves. I am very happy with the tartan Phillips chose. I think it will go well with some rich burgandy colors on him. I hope he finds a tailor in france 2.
