At the Farm....National Museum of Scottish Rural Life July 4, 2014

It was now time to make a visit to the farm! This was a detour from our castle searching. We went down to the National Museum of Scottish Rural Life and had a look back into the past. A volunteer from there, who has become a good friend, took us through the museum and out to take a look at the farm. Quite a wonderful history here of how life was 'back then'. We took a look at a restored farmhouse, looking at how it was furnished in the early years and the farm equipment used in the old day.

























This museum is just outside of Glasgow and makes for an enjoyable outing if you should ever be in the neighborhood. It is a working museum/farm. 

After touring the museum and farm, we went for a lovely lunch with our host for the day in a delightful Scottish Pub named The Auldhouse Arms. 









This day was also the only really rainy, soggy, chilly day we encountered in all our travels.
