Haven’t been up Ben Lomond since I was 17! Rather a long time ago.

Lovely and sunny here, though somewhat chilly. Still trying to get the daily steps in but it means going down the hill into town and back instead of up the hill.

Thanks from J. I’m not venturing up the nearest hill until after the winter!

We had base in Helensburgh very near to Hill House from 1974-1986, so visited often, when on leave. Had a trip back in 2022. It’s still drying out under cover.
