The Sound of Silence
« on: October 23, 2012, 04:49:22 pm »
Went for a Little wander today. There was no noise no wind and no clouds. But it was the lack of noise that got you it was weird. Heres a pic from by the pub. The pub is hiding in the trees.

Suilven - fond memories for us, conservation work on the beach at Clachtoll, tent (not ours) floating on a lake and never managing to get up the mountain because of bad weather... but it's a beautiful part of the world.... I am so jealous!

Beautiful, I love that area of Scotland. When I am up on the moor the silence can be quite spooky. Absolute bliss, I dont even like the radio on, silence is golden!
