Hebridean Living: Sun and Moon in the Hebrides

http://hebrideanliving.blogspot.com/2008/06/sun-and-moon-in-hebrides.html

Cross Stitch Designing and Crofting in the Outer Hebrides. Sunday, 22 June 2008. Sun and Moon in the Hebrides. Here we are, just the other side of Midsummer's Day. The rain is lashing on my window and the wind is howling! It's rather fitting somehow! Last week, I took a walk down the garden with the labrador before going to bed. Here's a photo of what I saw. Notice the moonlight on the sea - so beautiful. Oh, by the way, this was at 11.15pm! It was dark by 11.30 and then like this again by 3am.

Hebridean Living: A day in Stornoway

http://hebrideanliving.blogspot.com/2008/06/day-in-stornoway.html

Cross Stitch Designing and Crofting in the Outer Hebrides. Sunday, 1 June 2008. A day in Stornoway. When I was a child, I remember hearing Stornoway mentioned on the radio (or wireless as my Mum called it.)on the Shipping forecast and thinking that it sounded so far away and mysterious. Who would have thought that we would end up living a 20 minute drive away! Then we headed into Stornoway to do some shopping. We must have one of the best sites for a Car Park in the UK! Time to go shopping!

http://hebrideanliving.blogspot.com/2008/08/our-first-craft-fair.html

Cross Stitch Designing and Crofting in the Outer Hebrides. Sunday, 3 August 2008. Our first Craft Fair. Was the most fun, ever! The day started with glorious weather - bright blue skies, warm sunshine, lots of people in Stornoway for the Continental Market, the Fun Fair, the Carnival.and of course, the Craft Fair! Then, in true Hebridean fashion, the heavens opened and it. The start of the carnival procession was delayed as the heavy rain made it too dangerous for the floats. Eventually, they got the.

Hebridean Living: Rescuing a Highland Cow

http://hebrideanliving.blogspot.com/2008/06/rescuing-highland-cow.html

Cross Stitch Designing and Crofting in the Outer Hebrides. Sunday, 22 June 2008. Rescuing a Highland Cow. A few minutes drive from our home is a croft where two glorious Highland Cows often reside. A couple of days ago, the 'blonde' one was out of the croft and on the verge of the road.and I didn't have my camera! I didn't know how to get her back into the croft either, so we went on our way. When we returned from Stornoway, she was safely back in the croft. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

On Monday and was amazed to see the place full of sharply dressed, glossy people hammering on laptops. What was going on? My friend informed me that we had missed an important visitor to the island, who gave a Press Conference in the cafe.an hour ago. The Stornoway Gazette will fill in the gaps for you.

Hebridean Living: A fishy tale...

http://hebrideanliving.blogspot.com/2008/06/fishy-tale.html

Cross Stitch Designing and Crofting in the Outer Hebrides. Thursday, 5 June 2008. The very first time we ever came to Lewis, was on a trip over from the Isle of Skye where we were on holiday. It was October and the nights draw in fast at that time of year. I was sitting in our car, in the car park pictured in this. Here she is - a rather beautiful statue in honour of some extremely strong women. And here's a closer look so that you can appreciate the wonderful details of her. Clann nighean an iasgaich.
