Today I have two more images of the Keltic Lodge. After last week's post, I had a comment on the blog from the Keltic Lodge itself, what a nice surprise. They let me know that the building I had photographed was the Ceilidh (pronounced Kay_Lee) Hall. A Ceilidh is a traditional Gaelic social gathering which usually involves playing Gaelic folk music.

Well, I did get a couple of puffin photos, but they are more like proof than art! Being the end of the season, there were only a few that … [Read more...] about These are not puffins!
