Erin go Bragh

With St Patrick's Day on the horizon, my thoughts drift back to
my visit to the Emerald Isle last May. Despite the constant
drizzle and the overcast skies, fond memories of the spectacular views from atop castle walls, basking in the warmth of the kindness of Ireland's residents,
meandering through quaint colorful villages, warm scones with cream and jam all come together to create a wave of bittersweet nostalgia...
I wish I could figure out a way to purchase a secluded , cozy cottage, vibrant perennial garden included,
and retire to that wonderful country!
