    Sunshine at Loch Lomond and Loch Long

    Yesterday was a warm sunny September day unlike today which is wet and more wet. I was up at Loch Lomondside and Loch Long enjoying the sunshine

    My last name is Long (of course, no relation to the Loch, but fun nonetheless). Thanks for posting!

    Great pictures. I remember climbing Ben Arthur (the Cobbler) about 30 years ago when I was young and fit!

    Jimmy: You Scots are always trying to give us Yanks wanderlust! Well, you've succeeded. Love the pictures! Thanks for sharing.

    Nice looking casual outfit. Is that a Stewart Hunting kilt? Looks like one to me ... very handsome. I love the hose, too. The color draws attention to that fine-looking sporran.

    Finally, I think if you'll put a carriage return between Arrochar and [IMG], the Firth of Clyde picture will display.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    thanks for the compliment and it is Hunting Stewart and I did not realise that ''Looking down Loch Long towards the Firth fo Clyde'' was missing, thanks
