We drove to the front and by the side of St Moluag's church..
It is a 13th century Church in the village of Eoropie and well worth a visit if you are ever in the area. It is not connected to electricity and has some amazing oil lamps. We didn't go inside this time as Gerard wasn't up to the walk, but it is beautiful inside and spiritually uplifting.
We drove down the one track road with various passing places to the Butt of Lewis, the most northerly point of Lewis. The Headland lies in the North Atlantic and is frequently battered by heavy swells and storms. Luckily the sea was calm and the waves their own master crawling gently to the shore.
It was nice to get out and about and enjoy the beauty that surrounds us. Even a pool of water can be a beautiful sight against the vibrant green grass and rocky backdrop.
It certainly blew the cobwebs away. Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
See you soon.
You are in a beautiful spot. It's all rainy here today, I've gone back to trousers and boots, come back sun!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful views!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful views and such an amazing blue in the pool. We've wet and miserable weather here today. Cathy x
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a lovely trip out, such beautiful views.
ReplyDeleteThose pics are stunning ☺
ReplyDeleteMy word you live in a beautiful part of the world, a region that few of us will ever know.
ReplyDeleteYour photos of those beautiful views are stunning:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely day. Such a beautiful island.
ReplyDelete-happy sigh- Being able to easily go to the sea... And lose one's self, in it's peace, for awhile. You-are-so-lucky. I am "a broken record," I know. :-) Always saying this. But it is so true!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI never got into what we call Garage Sales, and Yard Sales here. But I can see, that meeting and chatting with friends, is a big part of it.
Gentle hugs...
Would like to know what the birds were, Cormorants? Would have thought you would have seen nesting on the cliff bits - any? Beautiful pics. Just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy visiting and touring your beautiful landscape. The rugged rocks look as if they have been protecting your shores for centuries. Keeping it's citizens safe :)
ReplyDeleteYou live in a beautiful area. X
ReplyDeleteLove seeing the rugged rocks and the colour of the sea - completely opposite to the coast round here
ReplyDeleteYes, the pictures are gorgeous. Look at those rocks! It's wonderful that you take the time to be out in nature. It's so calming.
ReplyDeleteI love when you share photos of the place where you live! It looks so beautiful. It's somewhere I wouldn't mind taking photos of. Glad you had a nice time at the boot sale. Sometimes it's more about socialising than buying!
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday morning Lorraine. I enjoyed reading about the car boot sale. We don't have those here, we have "garage sales". I had never heard of a car boot sale until I started reading blogs.
ReplyDeleteThen, you took us on such a lovely drive. I enjoyed seeing all of the sights with you. The sea looks inviting on such a bright, sunny day. Quite different than the stormy photos you sometimes share with us. The way the sea can change it's mood, never fails to amaze me.
I would love to take a peek into the church with you sometime. Maybe someday I will actually get to visit you on your beautiful island home. Never say never!
Best wishes to Gerard and hope he is feeling better today.
Blessings,
Betsy
Well, your weather was much better than ours: unremitting rain and cold enough to put the heating back on in the evening. You are indeed surrounded by beauty. x
ReplyDeleteSo incredibly beautiful. And in my imagination i can hear the surf pounding those rock cliffs. What a lovely day you’ve had.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful scenery. Awesome.
ReplyDeletelove your photos
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures of waves and rugged rocks! You seem to have endless interesting places to visit.
ReplyDeleteEven though the view is of rocks and sea. It is ever changing and so always new. Another post where the words painted the picture so well.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a beautiful weather from your description. You live in a beautiful place. I like the rocks and the splashing waves. It is raining outside at this moment and I am waiting for it to stop to go out to buy something.
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot of flea markets of all kind going on this month ! Everybody wants to get rid of old stuff and others love to buy the "old stuff" ! I would have a lot to sale ! Love the landscape, could just sit down on a rock and look at the waves on the sea !
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I can't wait for a day for us to "blow off the cobwebs"
ReplyDeleteWonderful sea pictures. Comforting is the sound of the waves crashing into the rocks. Breezy here today.
ReplyDeleteOh your shoreline is quite beautiful. What a lovely drive. The little church is beautiful too. How I would love visiting there. Glad you could get out and about and also have a little visit with neighbors. BTW Thanks for visiting me. I do love fruit growing in the garden and we have several fruit trees and plants that are edible.
ReplyDeleteThat coastline is stunning, I love the landscape, so harsh yet beautiful! You’re spot on when you say living the dream, I believe it!
ReplyDeleteI so enjoyed your photos of your ocean and craggy coastline. Such beauty you have at your fingertips on your island. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteI love watching the ocean... it's mesmerizing! Your photos are great!
ReplyDeleteIt is absolutely breathtaking. Like living in a fair tale.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that you found a couple of sale items and then got the chance for some great views, Lorraine.
ReplyDeletebeautiful! no cars and the car boot sale, that is a funny one. How is your husband doing these days? I hope better. My hands are recovering and I'm feeling better so there's that.
ReplyDeleteLovely. It's amazing how beautiful different places are- there is something beautiful in every setting. Just the view is different.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful, glad you were able to get out and enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteSounds as though the 'car boot sale' was a great social event.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful scenery. I love carboots and markets, you never know what you might find.
ReplyDeleteI am 48, have 3 children, 2 boys age 25 and 22 and a daughter of 11. My husband left me last year after 25 years of marriage (he turned 50). It has been the most difficult year of my life, but full of lessons about myself and what life and marriage are all about. I am passionate about marriage and i didn't give up on my husband. Am Arice Stringer by name and resides in USA, I entered online in search of advice on how i can amend my marriage while i was at work. I saw so many positive reviews and nice feed back about how a Doctor called Robinson.buckler@ yahoo. com has been wonderful with his work. I gave a shot to make contact with him via his Email and he assured me that my marriage will be peaceful and i believed in his words. 16 hours after he finished work, my husband came back home pleading and now, we are living peacefully again. Get in contact with him if you need any help.
ReplyDeleteI wished I could sit there too !
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your lovely wanderings, Lorraine. I Googled the church to get glimpses of the inside...which you may have shown before...isn't it amazing to ponder the age of such sites and the lives of all those who build them! I'm glad you enjoyed the inside boot sale, too. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful nature!! Thanks for sharing!
