SCOTLAND, CASTLES, FORTS
SCOTLAND INVERNESS WAS ANOTHER SCOTTISH FORTIFIED CITY, BUILT BY KING DAVID OF SCOTLAND BELIEVE IT OR NOT. THIS STONE CASTLE ON THE HILL, SAT ON THE CLIFFS OF THE RIVER NESS. IT WENT BACK TO 1057 TO BE DESTROYED BY ROBERT THE BRUCE. HIS NAME RINGS ANOTHER BELL...HIS CASTLE SITS IN SCOTLAND ON DONALT TRUMPS GOLF ESTATE! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? HIS MOTHER IS FROM THE WESTERN ISLES IN THE HEBRIDES BUT IN 1428, JAMES I HAD HIS OWN STING OPERATION WHERE HIS ADVERSARIES WERE TAKEN, INCLUDING ALEXANDER 3RD LORD OF THE ISLES AND HIS MOTHER MARIOTA. NO TELLING WHERE THAT STORY IS GOING? NO TELLING WHERE WE THOUGHT WE WERE GOING EITHER, BECAUSE IN 2005, WHEN JOHN AND I WERE IN SCOTLAND, I WANTED TO TAKE HIM TO INVERARAY CASTLE. SOOO PRETTY....BUT AS I SO OFTEN DO, I GOT CONFUSED AND WE WOUND UP AT INVERNESS CASTLE BY MISTAKE!
I SUPPOSE GOD HAD OTHER PLANS. THIS INVERNESS CASTLE ALSO HAS A DEEP DARK HISTORY IN SCOTLAND, GOING BACK TO MACBETH AND A MULTITUDE OF MURDERS, HANGINGS, SIEGES, PILLAGINGS, FIRES AND RAZINGS. IT SEEMED TO HAVE AS MUCH "BAD LUCK" AS LAKE WORTH, AND CURSES A PLENTY I AM SURE. TO ADD TO THE DISAPPOINTMENT IT WAS CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC! AND AT THAT TIME IT WAS THE INVERNESS SHERIFF COURT. NOOO! I READ ON WIKI THAT IN APRIL 2017 THE NORTH TOWER OF THE CASTLE WAS OPENED AS A VIEW POINT. REALLY?! WHAT POINT IS GOD MAKING? I GOOGLED THE MEANING OF INVERNESS...AND IT IS A SLEEVELESS CLOAK WITH A REMOVABLE CAPE...WHAT? WOW LIKE THE CAPE THAT MY NIGHT VISITOR HAD AT CAMELOT CASTLE WHO CARRIED A DAGGER.
THE CITY OF INVERNESS CLAIMS IT MEANS MOUTH OF THE RIVER NESS, SO WHAT IS IT SAYING? NOT MUCH...IT MUST BE HIDDEN IN A SCOTTISH MIST?” BY 2021 THE MIST HAD CLEARED AMIDST MUCH ADO ABOUT PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP AND WHAT I HAD MISSED. WOW! NOW I FIND THAT THIS MAN HAS PURCHASED MUCH LAND IN SCOTLAND AND HIS TURNBERRY GOLF COURSE LITERALLY HAS ON IT A MEMORIAL TO ROBERT THE BRUCE, ACCORDING TO THE TOP100GOLFCOURSES.COM, KING ROBERT THE BRUCE WAS EVEN RAISED AT TURNBERRY CASTLE (THE REMNANTS OF WHICH REMAIN NOW AS A LIGHTHOUSE ON TURNBERRY GOLF COURSE) AND THIS ROBERT THE BRUCE BECAME KING OF SCOTS IN 1306. THIS ARTICLE ALSO TALKS ABOUT THE “RELAUNCH” OF THE FORMER KINTYRE TRACK AS THE KING ROBERT THE BRUCE COURSE (OF COURSE). YEP, UPON FURTHER GOOGLING I DO INDEED FIND THE CORAL SCOTTISH GRAND NATIONAL HELD AT THE AYR RACECOURSE! ARE THE APOCALYPTIC HORSES HEADING FOR THE HOMESTRETCH TOO?
INVERNESS SAW THE BATTLE OF CULLODEN THAT PITCHED THE STUART HANOVERIAN HOUSE AGAINST THE SORELY DEFEATED JACOB-ITES. THE REBELLION WAS SQUELCHED IN JUST HOURS LEAVING ABOUT 2,000 DEAD! (THE TV RENDITION OF THIS GRUESOME BLOODY MASSACRE WAS MY FIRST HORROR MOVIE SEEN AS A CHILD. I DON'T THINK I EVER FULLY RECOVERED?) SO SOLOMON’S TEMPLE IS REMEMBERED AT THE MOSQUE POINT ON LAKE WORTH TOO. ...WITH A REFERENCE TO KING DAVID, KING SOLOMON AND EVEN JACOB THROUGH THE JACOB-ITES. THE LAKE WORTH VERSION OF INVERNESS WAS BUILT ON A MUCH SMALLER SCALE OUT OF STONE AROUND 1860, BUT IT TOO HAS A MACABRE HISTORY OF HAUNTINGS, DROWNINGS, MURDERS AND SUICIDES AROUND THE SITE.
