From The BBC: Your pictures of Scotland 16-23 July (2021)

All the best features of this weekly photo gallery are present today. We have the beauty of the
landscape, people and animals of Scotland. An added bonus is that the person who writes the
captions is in full "pun" mode. I'm pleased to see the swim vest on the dog in the "dog on boat" photo. In addition I learned a new word, "corrie"*. Enjoy!

* Evidently "corrie" is a Scottish Gaelic word that means "cauldron or hollow". "Corrie" is used to
describe a geographic feature in one photo that I would call a "mountain valley". Here are the
search results I found for the word "corrie":

2. I haven't even looked at the photos yet and still know I will love them. Thanks Tommy.

3. Well I wasn't disappointed. The Monet flowers photo was outstanding. Are you Scottish?

4. It's possible that I have some Scottish DNA. Two of my great-grandparents were immigrants

to the U.S. from Sussex, England and you know what a diverse genetic history The English have.
One of my earliest heroes was John Paul Jones who commanded the U.S. Navy during the
revolution we had and he was a Scottish lad who took to the sea at a young age.

But I just like the photos of Scotland and I'm glad you do too.

5. For Scotland lovers, check out Men in Kilts

Hosted by Outlander actors Sam (Jamie Fraser) and Graham (Dugal MacKenzie), it is six episodes lovingly featuring Scotland places, people and culture. It's on Starz, but you can get a trial subscription and watch the show and Outlander in a month like I did.
