From Ballyhalbert to Galloway - a morning view from last week

The only sound was the put-put-put of the wee outboard engine, around 7.30am. Ive lived all my life on the coast here, and the view to Scotland has been a regular feature of every one of my 38 years. Some of my first steps were taken on this very beach when my parents lived along the front of Ballyhalbert, before they bought the farm from the Johnstons, a farm my father had laboured on since he was a wee boy. All three of my own children have learned to walk on the same stretch of sand. I think most folk have places which are special to them - for me, the coastline from McCammon Rocks to Mooneys Brae is almost part of my DNA. Click the photo to enlarge.
