Well hello there once again all you blogger heads. Greetings and salutations!!!
Much has happened since our last update but I will keep this fairly brief because of time constraints.

The Millerites and our 'Neat' vacation.

We had a great time with our good friends the Millers from Pa. who came to visit us for a week. They arrived on the sixth while I (Marc) was with Frank at a presentation in Kilmarnock. When I returned the Millers were being escorted to the Wallace Monument by their personal tour guide, Liam. Apparently Liam did a great job because not too long after, they all returned to the house safe and sound but looking a bit weary from the flight. After exchanging greetings and presenting our guests with some haggis chips, I decided to give them a ride around the town of Stirling. Bobby who drifted off several times during the tour had understandably only a partial memory of our experience.
In the following days we visited the Stirling castle, Castle Campbell, climbed Dumyat and took in the Old Town Jail. We then after church Sunday morning headed up to the Island of Skye in what became known as the 'Vomit Comet'. We had a quite substantial percentage of our passengers request that the driver, 'pull over'. After the 'pull over', these passengers who have requested anonymity expressed how they felt so much better which we were all very excited to hear. Needless to say, we were driving on some pretty windy roads, some of which were single track for five hours. All that being said, it was worth it because the scenery was 'neat'. If you are ever visiting Scotland, I would make Skye a priority, it was 'really neat'!
While in Skye we drove on some more 'really neat' single track roads. Climbed a 'really neat' mountain and on the way down were entertained by Bobby chasing some 'really neat' rabbits. Tracy said she was having flashbacks of their first date. Interesting.

All in all we had a great time with the Millers and were sad to see them off at the airport. We quietly drove home trying to see through our tear clogged eyes and stopped of at Ikea to try to dull the sadness.
Many thanks to Bobby and Tracy for being such a blessing to us. We miss you and our vacation to Skye will be remembered as one of the all time greats.
To sum it up, it was 'neat'.
