Irish Blessing

May you live to be a hundred years,
With one extra year to repent.

A Stateside "Top O' the Mornin' to Ye." We'll be having the traditional U.S. corned beef and cabbage dinner at T's sister's today. 100% Irish roots grace T's family, my Irish connection is from Captain Mahoney , Nora's great grandfather, who sailed long ago to North America from Belfast.

The Abyssinian leprechaun posed both last night and this morning. I'm especially proud to have taken the shots with the Leica, requiring much more skill and speed than with my Nikon. One shot this morning and she was off to her first nap 'o the day, no worse for wear. Max O'Black, on the other hand was quite annoyed.

For the Record,
This day came in with spring sun and winter cold. Don't ask how our bones and bodies feel from yesterday's burning and hauling work!
