Melrose Abbey in autumn

I had an enjoyable trip to Melrose today to meet up with an old friend and visit the Bernat Klein exhibition in Old Gala House (in Galashiels)as well as have another look at Helen Cowans' show in the same venue. If you want to go too, please note the gallery is now only open during the week (Tue - Fri) from 1 - 4 pm! Fortunately I found a friendly face who was prepared to open the rooms up for us! The Bernat Klein exhibition was like diving into a sea of pure, joyful colour. Even the names of the pieces were a delight such as Ecstasy, Seventh Heaven, Blue Moon, Swan Lake, Dreamland. Infinite Moon, Sunspace, Gold Dust, Chartreuse, Caramba, Firedance and Golden Fleece. Afterwards we had lunch and on my way home I could not resist a picture of Melrose Abbey! A wonderful way to spend a lovely day. Thick fog did not spoil the day but I did have to take a detour to avoid an accident scene close to home. Just hope no one was seriously injured.
