Description: A visual timeline of people, places, things & my life.
Disclaimer: This post is VERY overdue, as lots of things have been getting in the way since the holidays: workshop planning, moving flats, doggy training, etc., etc. I finally just decided to make time, sit down, & post. This is the second time I have tried to blog (the first was yearsss ago & I wrote about 2 entries & called it quits) & I am determined to keep this one going. Partly as a catalog for myself of the trips that we take, partly as an evolving photo album to share with the people I miss at home,
I am aware that the title of this post sounds like a Hallmark Christmas movie, & honestly our Christmas cottage up north could’ve been used as the setting of one. I also may have been drawing inspiration from all of the cheesy, holiday movies that we watched WAY too many of during December (that I am not-so-secretly missing).
Since it was our first Christmas as “The Kirkes”, we felt it would be nice to spend it just the three of us & start some of our own traditions as a family. We drove about 2.5 hours north to Argyll – Kilmichael Glassary, by Lochgilphead & rented a 2-bedroom cottage via Airbnb (we’re clearly BIG FANS). Here’s the listing if you’re ever looking for a sick place to stay in the area.
