The weather is always dreach

This was an outdoor exhibit at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art. You can see it from the road as you drive past.

Across the street, you can view this response:
The East Lomond. It's apparently the eroded plug of an ancient underwater volcano. This is a shot from the hiking trail we took, which doesn't quite do this thing justice. I'll get a better shot of it for you to see how striking this hill looks from its surroundings.
This is a waterfall we encountered on our hike.
This was the end of our hike. You can see this monument from the farm, as it sits right on the side of a hill overlooking the valley. It's hollow inside with no stairs, otherwise it would probably have a great view! It was built to commemorate Onesiphorus Tyndall-Bruce, who replanted part of the forest on the Lomond Hills. The UK apparently has less than 1% of its original forest. The hills are quite bare in this area, so it is hard to imagine what the place must have looked like two or three hundred years ago.
And finally, a shot of the dead, featherless turkeys. It's all we talked about last week, so you might as well have a look at 'em. This is about half of turkeys hanging up, the rest were still waiting to be plucked at the time I took this picture.
