The Wicklow hills drenched in sun

Lough Ouler yesterday as seen from Tonelagee.
Ireland has jumped from cold winter to warm summer in a weekend. It was 22 degrees Celsius along the River Glenmacnass in Wicklow today.

Ireland looked incredibly beautiful from the top of Tonelagee, indeed, the entire route to the peak.

With clear visibility and total blue skies it was possible to see Kippure, Duff Hill and Djouce. Every hill in Wicklow was there in complete calm.

Lough Ouler was black and perfectly calm. Not too far off the cement work around Turlouch Hill looked just as it did 40 years ago.


And Tess enjoyed every moment of it.


Could there be a better place in the world to be on a beautiful sun-drenched day?

We took Frodo for a walk around Lough Ennell today to make the most of the weather. Great day for it.

What a lovely way to spend the day with Tess. She looks in pretty good shape to me. Susan
