Dolphins swimming in Keel Bay on Achill.

Here is a beautiful photo that was taken yesterday of the dolphins swimming in Keel Bay. It was taken and sent to us by Ina Kruger.

Ina also asked us to mention and thank MS from the Achill waterworks for his efforts to restore their water supply which was off for a few days. Ina said “It’s only when water is off for some days, you know, how precious it is.”

Golden Strand on Achill. Sunny, Sunny and very windy day today.😁 Cold northwest blowing, got some of the grass cut, washing done, gossiped with friend Agata, visited the neighbors, loaned a tin of W40 to coax open the shed door, 89-year old neighbor came and helped, and marveled at how warm my shed-turned-greenhouse is. Good day!
