Kirkton of Bourtie

When we stayed with Marion and Kiji in Inverurie, a small village in a small hamlet in Aberdeenshire we were first introduced to Stone Circles.

Not having the foggiest idea of what a stone circle really was, we were not prepared for the magic, the history or wonderment we would feel as we wandered throughout the countryside seeking out these amazing treasures.

Our first encounter was a glimpse of a 5000 year old Pictish stone circle through the windows of their 17th century stone home. At that moment we were filled with magical wonderment... and through Marion's passion, stories and love we were hooked on stone circles.

United Kingdom travels 2010

Today I made a link to articles I published about our travels in Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland.

We traveled for 6 weeks ... May 1st - June 17th 2010.

So far I have written about 10 articles about this trip and 20 more about Spain, France and Portugal ... And still have 20,000 plus photos and many more hours of travels!

I am trying to figure an efficient way to create a travelogue accessible to those of you who may be interested in experiencing our adventures.

So perhaps someone could give me tips on how to effectively use and integrate a blog, a website and a writer's posting site. At this moment I can't seem to get a handle on where I should write; how to link things so that it makes sense; and how to catalog, store, and up load photos. All help will be greatly appreciated!

Below is a link to the last article I published on hubpages.

If interested in reading more adventures, click the profile box which will bring up a listing of the articles or you can just scroll to the end of the article. At the end is a box which has arrows to other connecting stories. Just click on the arrow and it should take you to another posting.
