Scotland is beautiful. The pictures really don’t do it justice, but I have to share anyway. Even just a street in downtown Edinburgh, Scotland looks cool.

Today we continued work on the raised garden beds. I now have 13 and am officially addicted! Somebody stop me. I still think I could squeeze one more in…..maybe tomorrow.
