Observations on Life... driving, part 666. People who drive inconsistently, slowing down excessively for corners, speeding up on straights oblivious to that queue behind them trying to overtake. Today my watch said my sleep was "Good". Except I feel groggy and not firing on all cylinders. Definitely not a time to go for a drive. Yet, whilst out an about I see soo many people who appear to be driving like a zombie. Ah well, normal dog photo service resumed shortly.
Glas Bheinn - the grey green hill, can be climbed from the A894 near Loch na Gainmhich in less than 2 miles. Or as I chose on Friday, a 5 mile wander from Inchnadamph which passes through normally boggy ground and beside picturesque lochs to the rocky east ridge. contd... #DogsOfMastodon #BorderCollie #HillWalking #ScottishHighlands
It's not the murder of a US healthcare boss that's surprising to me it's that it hasn't happened sooner. The stories I see, mostly on reddit, of Americans with chronic illness being messed about in various ways is horrendous. For all its faults the NHS (E&W, Scot, NI) is a very special thing and we should never let it become privatized or 'insurance based'.
Sunshine was in short supply for yesterday's walk through Coire Dubh MÃēr.in Torridon. The aim was to head for Coire Mhic Fhearchair and see how far we got. The ford was fine despite all the overnight rain. But the wind was interesting - mostly 5 mph then I'd hear a 25+ mph gust coming and have to brace as it hit a second later. With a worsening forecast we turned around at the big cairn where the path splits. #Hiking #DogsOfMastodon #ScottishHighlands
I don't think Skye was impressed with that weather especially as it was heading for us. Overall the weather wasn't bad. Bit windy over the col of Drochaid Allt Toll Ghiubhais to really hang around otherwise the sunshine was still quite warm. #DogsOfMastodon #ScottishHighlands image
