June 2023

Welcome everyone. 

When the sun shines on North Ronaldsay, stop whatever you're doing, gather some friends, children and dogs and make for the beach with a picnic.




or simply find a peaceful spot in the veg patch





taking a lead from Tilly who certainly knows how to relax





Zara making new friends




and a new friend on the croft



~~~~~~~


Pause for thought



~~~~~~~

Dandelion heads, so amazing !









wonderful plants











loving them

Quote of the month




~~~~~~~

When we moved to North Ronaldsay Malcolm promised me my own "Junie Space"




and this was it !




I was not overly impressed but thought ok we can do something with this, so we did.








Malcolm , Andries and Billy put on a lovely new roof and I learnt new skills in lime mortaring and lime-washing
and 
now here we have a beautiful space !!!!!





Junie's space for felting, being creative, quiet? or whatever




Wilma is wondering where she is going to have her snoozing spot




and a space for dancing !



complete with disco light ! yeh love it !




You've probably guessed by now that I love coloured, twinkly lights











simply loving my "Junie Space",
entry by invitation only, haha !


~~~~~~~~



Around the island ....






on the calmest evening I have seen since being here




reflection of the sun on the clearest of waters






and a solitary seal 






Bewan pier










cygnets on the loch





patterns in the sand





fluffy skies



sanderlings on the shoreline





the old beacon






reflections inside the lighthouse






~~~~~~~~



Inspiration




see you all again next month,

be happy
