One of the three ancient Clava Cairns that stand in a line five miles east of Inverness. Dating back some 4,000 years, they are less well known than their near neighbour Culloden battlefield, but every bit as evocative.

"Stones will stand together as if searching for the stars
And all come crashing down again before they reach too far."

In 2015 we took a trip to Scotland with friends. This is me, standing by a standing stone at Clava Cairns in the finest Scottish weather.
Gabaldon's Outlander was huge then, so of course we had to try *the thing*. Did not get whisked away to the 18th century. It was a fun trip, though.
Got whiskey'd later on, in the pub. :blobcatdrums:

It was fascinating, but while standing in a central chamber, we felt suddenly chilled & scared, & couldn’t get out fast enough. It was very spooky.
Even weirder, when I told my mum, she said the same thing had happened when she & my grandfather visited the cairns 40 years earlier.
