Glen Fernisdale

Every now and again we have a bad day when we worry about what the future holds. We are lucky that we have some savings to fall back on but they will not last forever! We then think about the fact that we are both healthy and can enjoy where we live as lots of lovely places are only a bike ride away such as Creag Dubh where we often come across the wild goats. It has also been good that we have had the time to help folk with jobs they have wanted to do but cannot do themselves for whatever reason. One thing we have done recently is visit Glen Fernisdale which makes for a great easy bike circuit for us from home. It follows General Wade's road from Etteridge through to Ruthven and has a pleasant remote feeling. We last did this 19 years ago and wonder why we have not been back!

Having fun

During this week we have again visited our local hills as well as getting out in our canoes for the first time in ages. We also helped a friend by fixing his swing seat during which time we unfortunately disturbed some wildlife although these cute characters were quite happy running around chasing each other in the sunshine completely ignoring us!
