Weekend at Loch Doon

[Scout]

A big thanks to Tam & Gaz for inviting us along at for the weekend. Great spot for camping at without the dreaded midges. Managed to get a bit of sunburn aswell.

Unfortunatley no pics but I'm sure some will get put up.


Thanks again

How come you scallywags have a big fire when me and Jason aint there, dont you know our old bones need all the heat we can get...

Cheers Colin, might have to go and test it at the weekend. Decided not to take the canoe this time but I'm sure it won't be long till were back up that way. Twas some fire indeed. Glad I didn't have to walk to far to get the firewood for it lol.

We were melting around it.

Not a huge one just real heat for a change.

The fellow I know along the road cut us some of his wood, well quite a bit actually.

2 car loads to be exact, was one warm fire. Had a great chilled out weekend. Woke up to beautiful blue skys again this morning and thought ' know where I'd rather be'. The view of the loch was stunning at first light.

Brilliant chilled out weekend. I actually managed to go a walk on Sunday too so that was a nice bonus

Feeling like death today, have had to get on the caffeine early or else my desk will quicky become my bed

Got some good pics, will post them up later as I was knackered last night and am at work just now.

Thanks once again to Tam and Gaz

 

[Jinsin456]

Just to add too that fire was amazing, it was like a forge on steroids

 

[Barn Owl]

Was it the long walk or did you get to shorten it?

 

[Jinsin456]

Nope the full 6 miles, done it in less than 2 hours

Although the combination of not much sleep, that splitting maul and that walk has all added up and I can hardly move or keep my eyes open today

It's been a long day so far, might sneak away for a sleep soon

I drove round some of the roads by loch Doon about 5 years ago , and there was lots of wee old caravans dotted along the side of the road .
