Sunset #3/Whinnyfold #7

There was a golden glow in the sky this evening as the sun set over Whinnyfold.

One of the chimneys is squint and it sits atop the cottage named 'Crookit Lum'. This was the holiday home of Bram Stoker, creator of Dracula, who spent seventeen summers in Cruden Bay (staying at the Kilmarnock Arms Hotel for the first five years) and then at Whinnyfold.

I doubt if Stoker wrote about any of the glorious sunsets that he witnessed but I do know that the many storms he experienced inspired his writing.

*Lum is the Scots word for a chimney.
