Autumn
colours and Rowan’s red fruit begin to indicate season’s change over
Badentinan……….
And
on to high Teindland Hill in brilliant blue, fresh, cool
skies……colours change..….
Then,
beyond Elgin Oakwood, at the entrance to Quarrywood, hale, hearty,
hashers, hung fire for the off…..but what was the blue box in Crème
de la Crème’s hand for………
3 and yer………on…? Big Al and Spotty Dog rushed into gear…….
While Olive
Oils and Rent A Crowd are way ahead of Nikita and Spotty Dog, Crème de la
Crème, scans around…………with the blue box…..
Logs left and On On……..
Suitably
blobbed in ASDA’s best plain flour………at 34p/ bag…….
Now that blue
box and Crème de la Crème, remain inseperable as Spotty Dog and Big Al
look right for challenges ahead…….
As the gaggle
of girls get going………leaving the blue box and Crème de la Crème,
behind…
Olive Oils
captures the purple heather shades and textures for her studio
productions……. in the days ahead…….
Spotty Dog
announces after a toiling, long, perspiration producing, high climb
‘View Point’..
‘Let it all
Hang Out’ profiles as Olive Oils and Nikita puff to the high………..
View across SW
Moray……….was it worth it…….?
“OK
Nikita” quizzes Spotty Dog, so which way did the trail go…..?” “Weel’,
ah jist canna’ mine”……
It might be up
here “ower yon’ ploutery, shiggy
bit”………….
I’ll
check this hidden quarry…………..less than energetically call Olive
Oils…….
“Not here”……………..
Up to the Henge…………
And then we can reflect on it…………as it is so warm………
As mushrooms glisten……….
Spanish Moss weakens Larch branches………
Red Rowan’s flourish………..
Autumn colours in dying leaves abound……….
And
the ‘On Inn’ ahead call is heard
as the skyline ahead is enveloped in sheeting low cloud…
Where back at the CP, Rent A Crowd muffles atischoooo…..and Spotty Dog spots the collection efforts of Crème de la Crème’s blue box………..”Yes, it’s red Rowan berries for my Rowan and apple recipe”……….
So a quick
circle is promised back in the Muckle as the rain arrives to disperse
EH3……
ON ON
