remembering adventures from last summer . . .
clues such as
"before the river is bridged, don't get your feet wet "
or "twixt viaduct & forest, we lived here once "(see the sculpted face tucked away?)
the ancient ruin of the medieval township Cullendoch
feral goats, pegrines, dragonflies & grouse

I followed your link - wow - what a creative and fabulous art installation - I love it! :-)
This is so cool, Ruthie. I hope I get to see that Scottish natural heritage site some day. And that goat looks so happy. Matt's work is terrific, thanks for this post.
I love it I love it! I'm going to look this up and put in on my list of places to see.
Hi Ruthie,
Thank you so much for posting piccy's of the places I love and hope to return to someday. Have a great day!
Hugs,
Meri
That looks like an incredible place! thanks for the tour...
Treasures a-plenty! Thanks for sharing, Ruthie. Bright wishes. xx
On our recent Clints of Dromore ramble we managed three of the 5 clues Ruthie.Hush,Heart and Scene Shifter.We didn't find 'Ocean',the "before the river is bridged, don't get your feet wet " possibly because of the water level.Nor did we find 'Erratic',it was unlikely to be on our route.Haven't they made a wonderful presentation at the Visitors Centre.
Lovely blog.
This looks like the perfect treasure hunt to me, with fabulous sculptures to see along the way. I would love to visit this place someday. It is always good to see your lovely photos. I wish Summer was here now!
I hope your moving plans is going well.
All best wishes.

Thank you, Ruthie; I find Scotland so fascinating; would love to spend some time there. My brother's been several times. I'll follow those links. xa
This whole area is fantastically beautiful. It's a long time since i've visited.
I love the little hidden carving.
Many thanks once again Ruthie.

Wow! what a wonderful place. I will have to visit sometime.
This looks amazing! I would love to take a walk and discover these! I'm actually (not so)secretly plotting to possibly get back to Scotland or Ireland for a little visit near the end of the summer. I hope I can!!!
Sounds like the very best kind of 'treasure hunting'. *sigh*... Wish I could join you.
a very lovely blog post, I enjoyed journeying with you, and I now want to secrete treasures like the ones you found, what a wonderful thing he's doing
pure loveliness

I know this landscape a little after visiting nearby. You are very fortunate to live in this charming and beautiful corner of Scotland.
summer memories are grand when we are in the gray season. Loved a poetic peak into your travels.
Hi Ruthie,
I've really enjoyed quietly following your blog for a while now - its always very inspiring and I love your style of artwork, especially the portrait of yourself with your daughters - lovely.
I'm just letting the people whose blogs I enjoy know, that I have finally started a blog of my own (very new). I would be really chuffed if you found time to take a quick peek... (hope thats not too cheeky!)

Thank you for stopping by my blog and checking out my art doll figures. I must say, your blog is very interesting and I love all the pictures. I have always wanted to visit Scotland, and one day perhaps I will get the chance. But, in the meantime, I will enjoy the pictures you share from your wonderful homeland here on your blog. Thank you for sharing your wonderful treasure hunt experience. I would have loved to join in the adventure with you.

Thanks, Ruthie for your kind comment on blog de moi! I always enjoy your blogs. They are quite magical. Iain (my partner) especially enjoyed this post...he used to live near Glentrool. Love the wee goat at the end...the way he's standing on the wire of the fence...so sweet.
Thank you, as always, for a great post. Love the goat at the end!!!!
