"I think this Di Gilpin is going to be a weirdo," says my roommate, Linda.
We are going to knit with Ms. Gilpin all day on Sunday, and we need to have an 'inspiration piece' to, well, inspire us. I am actually looking forward to said inspiration.
"Does she not sound weird to you?" Linda asks.
Today is Kathleen's 50th birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KATHLEEN!!!!) and we celebrated with a pizza party at the "Atlanta Girls'" cabin tonight. It included a lot of wine, DrumBray (a very special treat), and pizza.
Today, I climbed 246 steps to the top of the William Wallace monument in Stirling.
Sue, my other roommate says, "It is very interesting what our guide calls a 'gentle incline' and a 'mist.''
It rained pretty hard today. But, we managed to go to Di Gilpin's shop in Perth, and see yet another castle. William Wallace is a national hero to Scotland. You may remember him from the movie, Braveheart. Mel Gibson is about 20 inches shorter than the real William Wallace, though.
Tomorrow, we'll see Fife and the St. Andrew's Cathredral. I hope it stops raining before then...

Go you with the massive stair-climbing! You must really be the Bionic Woman!
I'm sure that Scottish pizza must be, uhhhh, haggistastic?
