Smoo cave

Just back from a day and a bit at Durness with Lorna, out younger daughter Bethany and one of her friends. We'd intended staying until Monday, but our tent proved unequal to the wild winds and we had to retreat south through the night, avoiding the deer which at places throng the roadside! 

But yesterday we visited the Smoo Cave. Bethany and Natalie were taking with the fact that on the grassy slopes beside the cave mouth lots of people had written their names using stones, and they followed suit. What does that say about our inclination to make our mark? And in there a lesson for us in the fact some people had spelled out their identity using stones pillaged from other people's names? See Bethany and Natalie's names in the image below, just under 'Jolly'
