It's early, it's sunny and everything is covered in frost.

It's perfect, coffee and croissants are that stand between me and getting out.

I shouldn't be here (just fired up pc to load a GPX file to my GPS). Perfect mountain weather forecast. I kicked hubby out of bed and we're off hillwalking as soon as I've had a bite to eat.

Enjoy, I had a very pleasant 8K walk which has ended in some blisters, but I did pass a farm shop and got some nice pies for lunch.

I might go to the gym and cut some firewood later.

We climbed the Corbett, Beinn a' Bha'ach Ard. the first hill in Glen Strathfarrar. We were out on the hill for about 7 hours and walked 17.4 km and climbed 1018m (3339 feet)

Runkeeper has shortened the distance and ascent. According to both my GPS and Garmin Basecamp, the distance is 17.4km

I've posted a few photos to my Flickr account - although they are not yet labelled - if anyone is interested.

7 hours! That is approaching hard core it looks lovely.

I cut the grass and cut some wood after I went to the gym today.

I have a christening tomorrow which is going to eat up my free time.

Quick dash first thing will have to do me tomorrow morning.

I should be in my bed already.

I have only been up north once this year we took a trip to Loch Ness to show an Ozzie who was keen to see it.

Not what you're looking for?
