I love it (& your skirt)!!! Someone mentioned west Highland way? I will definitely have to remember that when I get a chance to go to Scotland.

Beautiful, I love when frost rims everything that way! Although (at least around here) it’s a sign of extreme cold in the mornings…

Beautiful photos, (I agree with Miss Julep – you live in/near a real wonderland!).

And that skirt is ADORABLE.

Love the skirt!

And all I can think of is that SNL skit “Lazy Sunday”

Now I’ll be singing that in my head for the rest of the day. Thanks Ysolda. Thanks a lot.

Ooh, frosty and beautiful. So different from here in Australia–it’s 36 degrees at the moment.

What’s with the step-over right next to a gate? lol.

I’d love to see a bit of snow for Christmas one day, but we usually have long hot days instead, with dust and flies and barbecues ;)

Great photos of a fairy wonderland. Just put a sherpherd’s crook in your hand and you look like a modern-day shepherdess.

What beautiful pictures! My husband and I visited Edinburgh this fall, and only wish it had been cold enough for more wool!!! We look forward to returning someday, and visiting the Highlands, as well.

I love that you are out, with a hiking backpack no less, in a fabulous red skirt!!! Hopefully you had wool tights on…brrrrr!

Emma December 17, 2009 at 10:10 pm

I can’t believe no-one’s mentioned your Owl sweater! It’s wonderful!
