Dreary days, bright smiles
Sacred steps across the moors
Scottish homecoming
I am in Scotland visiting my family. After two years, its so good to be back!
We are on holiday on the Isle of Arran. Such an interesting and welcoming island… even in the rain.

After all this it will feel like a rainbow Val, rain or not 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋

Well my heart’s in the Highlands, gentle and fair
Honeysuckle blooming in the wildwood air
Bluebelles blazing where the Aberdeen waters flow
Well my heart’s in the Highlands
I’m gonna go there when I feel good enough to go
[ . . . ]
Well my heart’s in the Highlands wherever I roam
That’s where I’ll be when I get called home
The wind, it whispers to the buckeyed trees in rhyme
Well my heart’s in the Highlands
I can only get there one step at a time
