For those who don't know, I'm at my fabulous friend Diana's house in Connemara and it's just glorious.
- Mountains! As a lifelong Chicagoan, I'm never going to be over mountains and this house is right on one.
- Sweet little lambs. There are a ton of new babies around and their wool is so bright and white despite the rain.
- Unconcerned sheep peppering the hills. I don't know how they are so calm when there is wind raging and rain covering you, but calm they are. They just keep grazing and only minding their lambs.
- Mist. Right now, the rain is calmer int he storm and so a light mist is cover the mountains a little farther away from the house.
- A glimpse of sun. A moment of sun is happening right now. It's fighting against the clouds and giving some really dramatic lighting throughout the valley or whatever you call the area we're in.
- Rushing clouds. The wind is moving the clouds like no other Maybe this will mean that the sun will win for a bit.
- A potless potted plant. I think the wind has blown this plant's pot right off of it. Actually like me go grab that. Okay I tried, but I couldn't find the pot.
- A tiny fairy garden. Diana is working on a fairy garden and while Eoin says it has to come down for a bit because some garden work has to be done, I hope it continues to thrive.
- A multi-colored candle. I don't know why, but I'm very affected by the colors in it. Maybe I need to get some multi-colored candles.
- Something that may be a stream going down a mountain. It's a bit hard to tell from this view, but there is something managing to cut a groove through the rock.
- Stone fences. I will always find these beautiful.
- Many shades of green. Whether it's the sun changing the color or just different blooming times for the plants, I can spot so many shades around me.
- Blowing branches. I don't think I can emphasize to you the power of the wind around the house right now.
- Gorse. I still love this bright yellow flower.
- Tufts of a longer grass. Now I'm no expert in plants, but it looks like there are bits of a longer grass-like plant sprouting up over the shorter grazing grass.
