A spoonful of Irish

IT'S SPRING!!!!!!!!!!

hooray!

a few weeks ago I was lucky enough to have an extended long weekend in Ireland, in particular in the Dingle penisula, for a spoonful of irish and a great catch up with Sarah and Ruairi and Liz and Mike for great craic..
god it was therapeutic.

the usual craic in greystones: too much red wine and dancing on chairs, with hemp seeds for breakfast and a drive down to tralee for a walk up Mt Brendan, only a wee bit lost where even Rosa got some vertigo with a detour through heather and sheeptracks to the road where we got a lift back to the village with blackie the dog in the sheep trailer back to the best tasting pint of guinness i've tasted in a long time...to the usual tourist recycling route through the ring of kerry via killarney with minimal feckin american tourists, the best irish sun of the year please god.

it was great.

Back to a sunny edinburgh and dundee. put away the fleece jacket. sunglasses out.
there is a god.

there is a god. sun warming your face. washing drying on the line out in the back yard.
no tulips this year but. sprouted green in the pots, but no blooms. ah well, next time maybe.

Otahuhu sold. moving on. tulip and stock blooms on karolines memorial. moving on.

sun warming your face.
Spring!
