We headed back from Scotland this morning.
It was a beautiful day and about halfway, we stopped off at a little town called Kendal for a couple of hours.
There was an exhibition from a Japanese artist in a gallery there. I didn't clock his name (sorry friends in Japan) but his art was cool. It showed city scenes with monsters, and the words next to the pictures said that while the monsters in his paintings aren't real, we all have our own monsters, that are potentially even more destructive than the ones in the pictures, in our minds. Food for thought...

We then stopped at this charity shop (a second-hand shop where the profits go to charity) which solds records and books. I bought 'Hey Nostradamus' by Douglas Copeland, a poetry book by Adrian Plass (quite an irreverent Christian writer) and an art book which had some awesome images in it:

It ended up taking 11 hours to drive back from Scotland and now I'm making the most of the weekend before working life starts again.

That's quite a long drive. I find road trips so exhausting.

I like the food for thought. So often the biggest battlefield we face in life is the one in the mind.
