 5:30am. I don't think I ever got five hours of sleep any night in Scotland. The sun never set for that long and I was too excited taking in everything I could. (My morning shadow in the lower right) |
 In the early morning hours I sometimes had to wait for Rich to get up. On this morning I thought I'd get in touch with the little bit of Andy Goldsworthy that lives within us all. |
 Couldn't stop with just one |

 Drinking a pint back at Hootinannies with my new friend after our week of camping in the Scottish Highlands. The logo on my hat says "Life is Good!" How true! |

 An early morning look down the main road of Inverness (the capital of the Highlands) |
 Took the train from Inverness down to Edinburgh |

 Allan just happened to be in Edinburgh with friends the same day I was passing through so we got to hang out for a day together. |
