Reality Sets In

I had mountains of mail awaiting me. Between the post office, the grocery store, phone messages, checking in with the family, and numerous bills to be paid, I felt as if I was rudely thrust back into the world. I'm trying to keep the feeling that was so prevalent during my time in Ireland--a reverence for the natural world, music, conversation, and culture. Writing was my reason for being in Ireland and what I learned about the culture of the country, flora, people and art is more than I can begin to put into words.

I had promised postings of various pictures but slow and unpredictable internet coverage made that impossible. I will try to post some of my many experiences--in photos.
