Yeah, yeah, I know - Church calendar - St. Patrick's Day moved to last Friday because of an early Holy Week.... but.... Happy St. Patrick's Day anyway! I thought I'd throw a couple of my Ireland photos up for the occasion - the left is from a doorway of a very old church on an island on Lough Corrib where Patrick may well have been at one time. The other is beside another very old ecclesiastical structure, the Gallarus Oratory, a beautiful day on the Dingle Peninsula. Ahh, one day, I'll walk the sod again. I could probably say a lot on this day. Unfortunately, I'm tired and don't have the energy. Peace to you. St. Patrick, pray for us.
