REST AND BE THANKFUL

Above Glen Croe the A83 in the Scottish Highlands runs west until it climbs  to the Rest and be Thankful Rest Stop. This is a steep climb and people are ready to rest a bit  Just down there one notices a forest of deep green. With some luck Red Deer are to be seen

Doing some exploring with family who live at Tayport on the Sea just where the Tay River flows into
the North Sea.  We have gone up into the Highlands several times

Dunvegan Castle and Mt. Ben Nevis  are nearby.  People are cautioned about hiking off into the forest because the weather can change quickly.  More than a few have experienced a cold rain and a breeze.  For some hypothermia follows.   From Tayport we have seen helicopters head up into the hills to rescue  careless folk.

The welcome and generosity of Scottish people is soon experienced by visitors. To be herded about by Sheep Dogs is quite a challenge for persons wishing to stand alone in a public gathering.
