Following the Rainbow

It’s been a while since I lasted posted. January was a slog with two viral infections, each followed by a bacterial infection for me. D. too battled successive infections while being very busy at work.

Last weekend while feeling cabin fever, I suggested that we take a brief trip to the seaside for fresh air and a change of scenery.

Fortunately, we can hop on a train just a ten-minute walk from our apartment and a little more than thirty minutes later arrive in Helensburgh (pronounced Helens-borough) along the Firth of Clyde, an estuary that leads into the sea.

We grabbed a bite to eat and then walked along along the water before hopping on the train back home.

Along the way, we saw this grand old house being renovated into apartments just on the outskirts of town.

The detail above the window was beautiful.
And at the top of the column.

While it was just a few hour journey, the sea air and beautiful sights renewed my spirits.

Certainly, catching this full rainbow helped! I turned to D. and said we should each make a wish. Why not?

May you find beauty in the everyday and may your fondest wish come true.

    1. Hi Kathy, yes, I’d love to see inside that building. It looked like three were some great stained glass windows. Thanks for the link -that will be fun! Hope you’re well.
