The Battle of Glenlivet 1594, between Catholic and Protestant forces in the Highlands of Scotland, decided the religious leaders of the coming reformation in Scotland, for some time. Although the battle was fought here, not much information survives, but it remains a beautiful part of Britain and Scottish History, well worth the walk (sorry about the flies)
The musings and meandering thoughts of a crotchety old man as he observes life in the world and in a small, rural town in South East Nebraska. My Pledge-Nulla dies sine linea-Not a day with out a line.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Leo XIV as the Vicar of Christ, the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
