Relaxing.....

Last week I was working at the Museum of Scottish Lighthouses as our small team have to take the holidays owing to them before the end of the financial year.

Whereas I usually work one day a week, this was two, one after the other.

Now,do not get me wrong.  I absolutely love working in the shop,at the front desk, meeting and greeting.  The first day I spent rearranging the shelves.  Checking stock.   Dusting...whilst thinking about the dust at home.....

The day after more of the same.  And slowly realising I am no longer young.

Meanwhile the Dawn Patroller was entertaining one of the daughters.  This one is particularly interested in Museums,as after getting a Fine Arts Degree she decided to return to University to obtain a qualification in Museums Collections or some such.


 The Museum does have many interesting items,and some beautiful lights.

Our Museum also has a cafe,which transforms into a restaurant Friday and Saturday evenings.

So that is where we went Saturday evening.  At which point I became even more tired....

Before going to bed I had to see this.  The Aurora.  We are so lucky and have had lots of sightings this year.  This one is quite faint.  The brighter yellow light is a reflection from Fraserburgh, I think.  But the green light is the Aurora.  This was about 11p.m.

So Sunday - relaxing - doing what I love most.  Off went the DP and the daughter.  Me down the shedudio.

 
 
 



 Few commissions out of the way.  So can really relax - now what shall I do next?
