In the Celtic oral tradition, triads are popular. These are little nuggets of wisdom grouped in three. The triad for the day:
3 Things that constitute a harper:
a tune to make you cry,
a tune to make you laugh,
a tune to put you to sleep.
This tune by performed by the Corrs might just help you do all three. 🙂

One of our favorite castles in Ireland (because how can you pick just one?!) is Cahir Castle, located in County Tipperary. Dating back to the 13th-15th centuries, and designed by Conor O’Brien, it is an impressive, imposing, yet beautiful defensive castle. This is the kind of castle that inspires 7-year-old boys to proclaim, “I could live here FOREVER!” and propel return visits because you may have missed something the first go-around. Have a wonderful day, Lisa
Sometimes you meet people or animals on your travels that you wished you had the time to get to know better. If you actually lived there, they would be the ones you would make sure to take the time to say “hi” to, to visit, to pet through the fence everyday on your way by. This little donkey is one of those. He hangs out near the boats at Lord Brandon’s Cottage on the Gap of Dunloe tour in Ireland. He seemed so happy to visit with us, and he really was as furry as he looks.
I hope this little guy is still doing well; he really brightened our day! Enjoy your Saturday. Slainte, Lisa
I love to ride upon the sea, whether by ship, boat, boogie board, or by kicking my own two feet. The feel of the sea spray on my face, the gentle or not so gentle rolling of the waves under my body, the knowing that the ocean goes on and on with its beauty.
“For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands. ‘Because he loves me,’ says the Lord, ‘I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.” (Psalm 91:11,12a,14-15)
Riding the sea upon the wings of God’s angels; may His peace, contentment, and joy be yours today. He loves you. Slainte, Lisa
