(NOTE - click on any image to see the high-resolution version)



Samhain/Halloween came around.... and I found myself on my way to Scotland, paying a flying visit to
my dad. At Newark airport, a Lufthansa 747 and a Continental 757 had a little bump:





Back home the family was having fun. We had Firefighter Sandy:..





...and (very camera-shy) Doctor Iain





One morning in Scotland I paid a quick visit to the lower Strathfarrar power stations. Kilmorack:





And Aigas:





Aigas has a dramatic location, in a rocky gorge:





There were contractors working, so I took an interior shot through the open door. These power stations
were beautifully built and finished!





Headed down to Glasgow for the flight home - took a nice night shot of a local landmark, the People's Palace:





Flying home from Scotland we actually saw something other than solid cloud, for one. And we took a strange
far-north route, only turning more west near Fort William. Here's the Blackwater Reservoir:





Our Northerly route continued trans-oceanic: sometimes, especially in winter, the transatlantic route
passes just off the South tip of Greenland. Today we went even further North, right over Greenland. Scary stuff:





Back home. Sunday the 5th was a birthday party for one of Iain's closest friends, Gabriel. A
wonderful time was had. Iain decorated a gift bag:





And Gabriels very talented mom put on a puppet show!
