Mount Usher Gardens, Ashford, County Wicklow, Ireland

This beautiful garden in Ireland was one of the highlights of my visit to Ireland with my sister, Carolyn, in 2014.  Beautiful old trees and mature plants made this a wonderland of nature.  Hope you enjoy it too.  Take a walk with me.........

A New Day

The caterpillar has emerged from its cocoon.....it has taken me two years to work through some "stuff", but I find my life alive and renewed. I am back and myself again.

Trip to Pennsylvania

May 18 through 22 was spent in Pennsylvania. Liz and I stayed at a B&B (upper left photo) in Swarthmore, PA. Although this was mostly a genealogy trip, we did relax and have fun. Genealogy places we visited were Phildelphia, West Chester, Norristown and the small town of North East, MD (upper Right). And one day we visited beautiful Longwood Gardens. On the trip back to Richmond, PA I stopped at the Birthplace of George Washington.(Two photos below).
