Just typed THE END on a new 18th-century story for you in which our heroine wears this blue gown. Isn’t it exquisite!? I began the story in Scotland last May (2013) which seems fitting since our heroine is a Scottish lass. But there is still lots of polishing to do before deadline. The book releases in 2015 and I cannot …
Balmoral Castle
Thought I’d do a wee post about Balmoral Castle, the queen’s Scottish residence, especially for dear reading friend, Michelle, who has a special interest! Balmoral has a rich history and I highly recommend the movie, Mrs. Brown, and the book shown here. The castle is open to the public about 4 months a year, namely the ballroom and grounds. Interior …
Back from Alba
May was a whirlwind – but a good one! Now I’m back and trying to post a few of the pics I took while in Alba, the Scottish Gaelic name for Scotland… A windy day in the Hebrides on the isle of Iona. Also enjoyed Mull and Skye… Love this Scots logo seen at historic sites… The bluebells were in …
