Land of kirk

Arkle and finn walked.

Headed south with Wednesday night fellow football coach to walk up a hill from his village of youth.

Parked in the main street and walked along, the chat was the old shops and were the mine was.

The slopes of grass and bracken made easy progress with snipe rising as we ascended.

Clear skies and views all around.

A blustery trig point summit.

Lunch stop at the ancient kirk and miners cairn.

Tea stop at a fine establishment rounded off a great day.

Cleared eco daughter's flat of rubbish and a dump slot first thing tomorrow.

Dogs walked with eco mum.
