Andi, Thanks so much, this is a wonderful site. I am excited to read and learn all that I can here, and as you said, there is a lot of that to be done! I am 53 from the state of Oregon US. I spent a month in Scotland and wish that I had never had to leave. I'm hooked! Thanks again. Lynda

Andi, it was awesome, I rented a car and pretty much criss crossed the Country doing a historical and Castle tour. I did not get to the islands that trip, but I will going back! My map feels like cloth, it was so well used. I sort of align myself with the Fraser of Lovet Clan, I even camped a night by Fraser Falls. Culloden, Stirling, Falkirk, Prestonpan, up one side and down the other. To much to list! Tell me the MUST SEE places, the more remote the better. I am not a touristy type. Thanks again!

Sounds like a wonderful holiday Lynda. Have you checked out 'Regional Scotland' and 'Holiday Outings' yet, there's some useful information and super pictures too.

Welcome Lynda! Great to have you here and hope you join in the fun throughout the site here! I hope you see this! I noticed you are the same age as me. Plus you live in Oregon! I live in Arizona, but am returning to Oregon for a 9 day visit the end of June for a family reunion. I was there two years ago and LOVED it! My in-laws live in a small town called Alsea (45 minutes from the coast) and between the cities of Corvalis and Eugene. We are all going to rent a beach house right on the beach in the coastal town of Yachats. Know where all this is?! It is so unbelievably beautiful in Oregon. Sure do love it there and you are very lucky to be a resident there!
Glad you got to visit Scotland. That is another trip on my list to make! I would love to do the Outlander tour by author Diana Gabaldon....one day! Is western Oregon and Scotland similar in any way? Just curious.
Take care and talk to you soon!
