October 6 -- Inverness/Glencoe/Loch Ness

Somethings aren't open on Sundays.

Like car rental places.

It took a while, but we found a car to rent -- had them come pick us up and we were on the road to Glencoe at 11 am.

Melissa and Jonathan bought property in Glencoe for Kent, who should now be referred to as Laird Kent Horie, Lord of Glencoe.

The property wasn't well marked and we went right past it.  Then we looked at the map, which was inadequate, but that didn't stop us.

We found the property.

We got there and we both had to go pee.  Seriously badly.

If you've ever been on a Horie Family Road Trip...there is a lot of bathrooming out-of-doors.  Kent has been really great over the years of making sure I get to stop at a real bathroom, but this day, I felt like I peed all over Scotland.  (We did stop at a proper bathroom in Loch Ness....and I didn't even have to pay 30p for it!)

When we found the Glencoe Wood, seconds after we arrived Stewart showed up--who it is THE guy who is promoting the sale of the property, he was there to check on his wildlife cameras.


So on the property we placed 5 Red Pirates, a Canadian Flag and a treasure chest.  And then we peed on the property.  It's now marked for life.

:)

And then I thought about the wildlife cams......

On the way home, Kent and I stopped in Loch Ness and Kent went for a swim -- it was planned that we would both go in, but I caught a cold days before and didn't think it would be wise to be chilled on the way back to the Antfield B and B.
