    Beautiful Ireland

    Been Traveling there. Didn't create any of this natural beauty...

    We'll begin in Laytown.

    More to come later.

    The beach pictured at sunrise was my mother's favorite.

    She died eleven years ago.

    We had a family service for her on this beach and spread her ashes. There is still a rosebush there which was planted for her.

    I will post pictures of the rock which was her favorite to sit on at low tide.





    (all photos posted were taken by myself in April)

    Gardens in Ireland can be very beautiful. This was just after they'd had five days of cold, wind and rain. The rock is the one my mother sat on.

    I had two rugby seasons there ( Waterford, Munster ) and did not see a summer, love the pics so far.

    Rugby? A rough dude, huh...

    Incidentally, my brother worked in the meat production industry for many years...

    Thank you. It takes a little more time and effort than I had thought so posting these will be a bit slower than I'd like. Looking up the beach towards Drogheda.

    This was one of the first nice days they'd had in weeks. It did rain and storm our second day there. So I had to get while the gettin' was good.
