I awoke to see Jack Frost and his missus had been snow painting over on Hungry Hill on Beara peninsula last night:
That's one thing that's really resonated with me this year. Ireland is such a beautiful country.
People often commented to my grandmother what a beautiful view there is from where she lived. My grandmother would give a pragmatic reply: "The view will not feed you".
Sometimes when I go walking on our peninsula I drink the views and the scenery and marvel at God's painting skills. I feel like I am living in the middle of a giant oil painting.
Hopefully next year we will be able to go to places much farther away and tourists will return to here?
I wish everyone a great 2021. Thanks for reading and special thanks for all your comments.
Happy New Year.
Of course your granny was right, but the soul needs feeding as well, and you do have beautiful views. Happy New Year to you and yours.
