2nd July ... going
15th July ... gone!
At last I cannot see the new house from the sitting room. I put the last stone in place with the help of Sorley last week, photographed by Ben. Today I put some dwams in the wall and cemented them in. Tomorrow, weather permitting, I'll put in the uprights for a gate.View from the Little Bousta side. I/we still have to complete the wall to join the yard wall. This will run in front (north) of Sorley's house.
It has been a still, warm day with the fog slowly creeping in.
This was at teatime. Now, 8pm, and I cannot see the skerry in front of the house. Sorley rang me at 11am from the top of Collafirth Hill as he set off for the Lang Ayre on the other side of Ronas Hill where he is going to camp tonight ... hope he finds his way! Tomorrow should be misty and sunny. Hope it lifts for Sorley.
