The Green and Red

........ Of Mayo.
Ever since I listened to and drank in the images of Des Clinton, guest speaker at the camera club, my thoughts have been drifting back to Ireland.
It moved me to see his evocation of places I have been and love.
Tonight listening to my haunted iPod as I prepared dinner, I was chopping these peppers for a spicy chicken stew, and the Saw Doctors song played.
While I would like to see far flung countries, I am constantly drawn to the west of Ireland. There is a deep seated need in me to go there, to be there. Perhaps I will camp on Achille Island again soon.
