dungloe river sights

For the last six weeks we weren’t allowed to be more than 2km away from our home for exercise purposes.  A few days ago the restriction was updated to 5km.  Also, people 70 and older were allowed outside after cocooning for the same period.  We celebrated by taking a longer walk. :)

  5. A fine celebratory excursion. Your plant is Bogbean - a less than pretty name for an attractive plant.

    Aquí estamos en la fase de andar una hora y no alejarse más de 1 kilómetro.

  22. Longer walk means more to see. Love the river photos. Is it too cold to swim out there yet? It looks refreshing.

  25. Hi Bill! How wonderful to see your part of the world. Ireland is one place we have been wanting to go to but haven’t yet managed. We will though. Both my sister-in-law and daughter-in-law are Irish and Scots Irish. My son and daughter-in-law spent several months working on Lambay Island.

  28. I'm sure that walk felt wonderful. We're again allowed back into the park across from our home. Spending time outdoors feels like a gift to the soul.
