A wooden bridge leads to the gatehouse of Dirleton Castle. Despite being in Scotland, the sky is clear and sunny.
Today's #MomentofTranquility: Scotland's Dirleton Castle. Building began in 1240, Cromwell's army attacked it in 1650 and badly damaged it. The ruins were made into a central garden feature in the 1660's. Certainly better than a garden gnome.

Gothic arches stand under a mostly cloudy sky. The town of Jedburgh can be glimpsed through the arches.
Today's #MomentofTranquility: the ruins of Jedburgh Abbey. Founded in the 12th century and one of four border abbeys.

The long abandoned stone houses of Skara Brae, with a hearth in the centre for fire, and stone beds and furniture.
Today's #MomentofTranquility: Some of the neolithic houses of Skara Brae. I can imagine them actually being quite cozy with roofs, fires in the hearths, and soft bedding to sleep on.

Amidst the noise and haste of human affairs, a squirrel finds serenity in simplicity. Perhaps there's a lesson in that. #TreeWisdom #NatureSpeaks #LeithLinksReflections #ScottishTranquility #AncientElmTales #EternalNature #TreeObservations
