    My current Historic Scotland Series takes a lot more work to write & edit so that I can do justice to this fantastic country I am proud to be a part of. Work last week turned into a 6 day marathon with more of the same this week, not allowing me the time I want to spend on my Fan Of… posts.

    The next post in the Historical Scotland series will be the promised “Poets Path”, now on July 22nd.

    Until then, here are the first two posts in the series in case you missed them.
