Autumnal colours

EPW Autumn
R&C, Andrew & I and our friends Jonathan, Alison & Alexander (10) were at the Wood this weekend. R&C got there first on Thursday to go to a meeting at the pub, the rest of us arrived on Friday evening (or very early Saturday morning). R&C left on Saturday evening and the rest of us left on Sunday afternoon. It was all very jolly and we had the most beautiful weather.

On Saturday Andrew & Jonathan went up Gleouraich (I think they're inventing most of the vowels in that) and Spidean Mialach, the two Munros nearest to EPW on the North side. One can see the latter from the house. The rest of us enjoyed the sun from the deck, and went on gentle perambulations around the policies. On Sunday, we tidied up in the morning and then went for a walk at Kinloch Hourn (I forget how long and twiddly the road is to get there, even from EPW) with fantastic views along the loch to Ladhar Bheinn - the Other Place is just out of sight alas.
