Luck 'o the Irish to You!

Sunset St. Patrick's Day

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back. 
May the sun shine warm upon your face; 
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again, 
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

As the sun was setting on St. Patrick's Day, this Irish holiday, I hope you had the chance to celebrate. Perhaps you kissed the blarney stone, if you found yourself in Cork, Ireland, or sipped an Irish green beer or found a four leaf clover or looked for the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. However, you spent the holiday, I hope you celebrated joyously. From this Irish gal to all of you folks, Luck of the Irish to you! Sunset captured St. Patrick's Day in Hendersonville. Go easy on me. I've never felt my sunset images met my standards. Not to mention I had to shoot from my car. Thanks for stopping by. ENJOY!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Luck 'O the Irish to you on this St. Patrick's Day. I am of Irish ancestry and if time had permitted I might have stopped for a green beer today, but time didn't allow. I have been saving this image of a sunning Turtle in the swamp at Murfree Springs Wetlands I captured a few weeks ago to share with you on this 'green' day. As I drove around Nashville the past few days, I noticed beautiful Bradford Pears and Forsythia bushes growing in gusto. Daffodils were sprouted up in patches of yellow everywhere I turned. I believe the Tulips are going to be blooming in a few weeks at Cheekwood. I've been checking in on their Facebook page. I surely have to pay a visit again this year. It was an uplifting experience being around all of the hundreds of gorgeous yellow, pink, red and orange Tulips blooming there last year for their Tulip Festival. Need I say it . . . thank goodness that Spring has Sprung. ENJOY!

St. Patty's Day

A traditional Gaelic Blessing on this St. Patrick's Day. On St. Patrick's Day I always think of this blessing. It reminds me of my Mother who used to say it from time to time. HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!
