Loch Turret and Ben Chonzie
On Thursday I did another walk, alongside Loch Turret and then up Ben Chonzie (my second ever Munro). Just Flora and me, although on the top of Ben Chonzie I met two people I'd spoken to on Schiehallion last Saturday! It was a beautiful day really. Click on the picture here and (hopefully) you'll see the album of photos. And I do have a perfectly reasonable explanation for having a miniature of whisky with me - it's to do with my next-door-neighbour actually.

Hmm intrigued with the whiskey bottle, medicinal I am sure ...
Great photos Anne. xx
The explanation (which convinces me anyway) is that the car park at Loch Turret dam is just near the Famous Grouse distillery. I called in there to buy sweets for the walk as there were no other shops in the vicinity. My neighbour Iain retired recentlyish from Famous Grouse and the thought occurred to me it would be fun to buy a miniature and take a photo of it on the cairn at the top! I did have a nip to keep me going, but didn't finish it, honest.
Thanks re the photos - I'm not much of a photographer but the scenery was awesome and it was hard to go wrong with point-and-shoot.
Enjoyed the pics. And hey, if you want a little nip when you go walking, who am I to say anything? :)
Please read this message from Arlee Bird:
There is a blogger out there who needs your support more than most others do. He is an inmate in a prison who is attempting to have a voice. He has been writing for several years and would like someone to read what he has to say. He does not have internet access and his submissions must be posted by his sister, who in turn sends him comments for him to respond to. I hope you will at least take a look at his blog and then if you moved to do so, leave a comment for him and follow his blog and tell others about it.
