No, my husband is actually standing on that cliff - the whole western side of the brough is made up of huge cliffs like that. You can walk across to it from the mainland during low tide on the eastern side. It's a fascinating place, complete with a lighthouse and the ruins of a Viking settlement.

Yes, that's snow from a previous winter on the rocky pier.

St. Mary's is a beautiful structure, but I love the stairs cut into the rocks!

Y'all may get tired of my rocks. I found this natural stone in Custer State Park, no doubt left over from the Ice Age and glacial action by the looks of its polished surfaces. Probably had been buried for years but through freeze/thaw cycles, it got pushed back up to the surface by moisture that would pool beneath it. And here this 16 inch marvel from the ice age lays all by itself in the middle of a prairie with no others close by.
Very cool finding, Larry!
