Day 6, Newtonmore

20120830-070610.jpgIt poured rain all day so not a lot of photos even though the scenery was beautiful. The best part was seeing Harry ride his bike up to our hotel. I met Harry in 09 on the cross country trip from Los Angeles to Boston. Most all of the group has kept in touch and when he heard I was going to be in Scotland he said “I’ll come up and ride with you” It didn’t sound exactly like that, he’s from Liverpool and English language has been greatly modified. So much fun to see him and he is going to ride with me for the next couple of days.

20120830-080007.jpgWe went for a Whiskey tasting and had a great small world experience. When we started someone asked if he’d been to the States and he said he had just bought a house in Punta Gorda, not even mentioning Florida, as if everyone knew where Punta Gorda was. He bought a house in the Marina and can’t wait to spend winters there. So I met a new neighbor in a town of 325 people in the Scottish Highlands.
