“How sweetly lies old Ireland, Emerald green beyond the foam, awakening sweet memories, calling the heart back home.”
This challenge proposed a challenge for me having just returned from a one week jaunt in Ireland, my mother’s homeland and the magical country often referred to as “a thousand shades of green.” The many photographs I took displayed the countryside in magnificent hues – emerald, jade, moss, olive, mint. All different, all breathtakingly beautiful. Which one is your favorite?
A glimpse of nature’s green. Claremorris, County MayoA river runs through it, Doolin IrelandWhat’s greener than St. Stephen’s Green in Dublin? An oasis within Dublin cityMoore Hall, County Mayo, Still grand in its ruins and purported to be one of the most haunted places in Ireland…The iconic Cliffs of Moher
I am an ex New Yorker who still misses the vibrancy of the city. I seek out the humor in every day life and relay it through my stories in the hope others will appreciate as well. I love to write about growing up with my fantastically unique Irish mother whose memory inspires me every day. Although she is no longer with us, her antics are an endless staple for my tales. I currently live in Connecticut with my husband, two sons and toy fox terrier Anabel.

Oh what marvelous green photos you have for us this week I can’t even pick a favorite 😀
I have to say the one of Doolin: it’s where I met my husband. 🙂 After 28 years here, I am still surprised how the green sometimes hurts my eyes, it’s that vibrant.
