Our Home in Inverness

Our home in Inverness, with our car, too.

The key to enjoying house sitting, is to treat the house as your home.  It takes some getting use to, as the pictures are not of your family, or even people you know.  The kitchen is not arranged by you, so looking into drawers and cabinets is the norm, until you (somewhat) remember where everything goes. (Sorry if things are not in the same place you left them, Karen!)  Learning the quirks of the house takes some time, but just like our place in Tucson, we get used to them.  Except the front outside door which is split in half; that gets me every time!

Will I make it out?
The sign on the house says it belonged to a Piper.  The little man on the door lets you know, just in case you can't read Scottish.  I love houses which have names.

The Piper himself.
