Well Worth the Wait...!

Two days ago I celebrated my 50th Birthday!  I can't believe I'm fifty but I guess in reality we never think of ourselves getting older.....  NOT that 50 is old!  It's the new 21!!  

In two days time we also celebrate the gallery being open two years!! 

Although I've had a few weekend escapes over the last couple of years - this is the very first time in that period that we've actually had a long weekend away together.  

The last thing I wanted was hustle and bustle.  So I booked a private cottage let in its own grounds with the above views of this private section of "Loch Fyne" at Minard.  The private drive was a mile long and the cottage is surrounded by woodland and the shore of the Loch is only 100 yards away from the door.  PERFECTION! 

The noise level.... bird song and the loch lapping the shore.  (Loch Fyne is a coastal loch - so it has a tide).  This is my heaven for the next few days.... 

Now a ten mile drive to the nearest shop for tea! 

This weekend has to be rated as one of the best breaks ever!
