Hi Everyone,
Good ole St. Patty's day inspired me to pull out my Ireland photos and paint a pastoral scene. I remember the first time I ever went overseas, I was 17 and just graduated, they gave us a big lecture on Hoof and Mouth disease. At the time I thought when in the world would I be walking around in animal poo. Well I quickly learned you do that quite often while visiting these pastoral landscapes. Visiting Ireland was no exception. In fact when I visited Ireland I was newly married, living in Germany and having fabulous adventures with my husband. We went off the beaten track and walked in all kinds of animal poo. This was the closest I had ever been to a sheep and during that same trip we had to get out and help move along some cows so we could get across the road. I was beside myself I had never been that close to a cow either.
Hope you had a fabulous weekend and I'll leave you with an Irish Blessing
May your feet never sweat,
your neighbor give you ne're a treat.
When flowers bloom, I hope you'll not sneeze,
and may you always have someone to sqeeze!
Carrie
