Then over to near Bathgate, Edinburgh, for a meal and people sharing memories.
I had written out the route instructions for Pirate...that kept him busy!!
It was a really beautiful day for his send off...a few showers and a rainbow when we finally arrived home.
On the last leg we passed this bing (spoil tip)...it's the end one of about five left in a group on the edge of West Calder.
Not coal...but the remnants of processed oil shale....I was very fortunate to spot the one stopping place by a farm gate, to stop and take this image.

Funerals are meant to be sad occasions but I think the person should be remember for all the positive things about them.
I think celebrations of life are the way to go, I have been to a few, 'funerals' are for the living and not the departed imo and a celebration of life is a healthy way to look back on all the positives of that life, to appreciate what mark that person made in the world and to have an opportunity to share that with their loved ones.
Interesting spoil mountain. I had to look up the word "palmares"!
