Elder Tree behind the Bus Stop on Muirhouse Parkway. Soon it will be ready to make elder flower champagne, my favourite summer beverage.

On my way to Rockness 2010 I visited a Place very near to the Battlefield of Culloden called Clava Cairns. Unlike its brutal neighbour and a music festival, this place gave of an unbeleivable sense of peace and tranquility. Little is still really known about these ancient sites but I am certain that they were also very special places for the people who constructed them all those 1000's of years ago...
