Common Hawthorn by jamibann

Common Hawthorn

I was in Aboyne on Thursday, acting as chauffeur, as John had an appointment. Whilst I was waiting, I went for a wee walk along the riverbank. The hawthorn are lovely at the moment.

On Thursday evening, we met up with an old school friend of mine and her husband who I'd never met before. They live in Canada, and were over in Scotland for a 45-year University reunion.
Yesterday I had lunch with 3 old school friends in Banchory. It's been a catching up couple of days and lots of laughs. I should have got some photos of the 'girls' but preferred to enjoy the moments.

When you've attended 3 schools in 3 different villages within a 40 mile radius, you know a lot of people! John often wonders if there's anyone I never went to school with!
A stunning capture, wonderful colours, focus and dof.

I really had to smile at the last part of your interesting narrative ;-)

Any hawthorn we have here never gets to that stage. Some rowan will berry but most doesn’t.

Lovely image. Sounds like you've had a great time meeting up with 'old' friends.

Love your photo....and your story.
It's amazing how many people you can know growing up in non city places. And the connections are strong. That's one reason I love going 'home' to Tain even though I have lived here twice as long as my growing up years. 🥰
