water gushing down the hills
filling the burn
polishing the rugged stones

We are so grateful to see the rain filling the burns (streams) and lochs again after a long dry Summer!

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words and your support J.R. You were one of the first to encourage me to create a book and we are so happy it has finally come together. We hope you enjoy what we have created and work has already started on our next collection 🙂🐾🐾
