Can you say Cold and Extremely Windy?

 Here’s a pic of where we stayed last night - Houstoun House

Parts date back to the 1400’s but most is from the 1600’s

Today Shan and I took a leisurely drive south to Hadrians wall.  It actually got colder and the wind was just nuts! Stopped at several locations but most notable was the Roman Military Museum and Vindolandia. It was of course, amazing but a little hard to enjoy due to the weather

We are now tucked in at our cute little hotel/B&B which we got to by driving through throngs of pheasants - who appear to be the most stupid bird around -  saw several roadkill instances as they see you coming but either won’t get out of the road or they run the to your exact path!

Here’s a picture from the window in our room
