Woke to bright sunshine yet again and it stayed that way all day. No walks in the morning. Elaine had an appointment to get her hair cut at Marian’s Hair Studio at 10:00 AM. When she came back, we headed for Clogher Strand (which you have seen multiple times on here), this time for a hike along the cliffs – my personal favorite walk. It’s three kilometers long – the first half is very scenic, the second along a dusty farm road. We go half way to the road and then turn around and go back the same way – scenic all the way and still three kilometers long. Pictures galore, of course (taken with the Canon G7X).

After the hike we headed home for lunch and a nap. Then it was down to the Dingle Pub for an afternoon Guinness (for me) and Rockshore Lager (for Elaine). Cocktails were at 5:30 prior to dinner at Out of the Blue (OOTB). OOTB serves only seafood and no fries, so no fish and chips here. Our waitress remembered us from prior visits when she worked at Ashes. I got some food pics although sometimes we had started eating before snapping the photos. The food is so gorgeous and delectable that I often dig in before remembering to take the pictures.
Oysters, Monkfish, and a Chocolate Brownie for me. Smoked Salmon, Potato Encrusted Haddock, and a Chocolate Brownie for Elaine. A delicious French Pinot Noir. Pictures courtesy of my traveling cell phone – A Samsung Galaxy A03, not my home phone, a Moto G Power.
After dinner it was back to the Dingle Pub to listen to Richie O’Brien (Dreams of Freedom) and watch our friend David Geaney dance. David’s father owns the Dingle Pub and he is often bartending or delivering food from the kitchen.
Long day. Late night. Too much food and drink. Sigh.
Tell Elaine her hair looks good, that beautiful color, just striking. And you Joe, look, well like Joe. Contented and happy. I am happy that both of you have found your bliss. The pictures are peaceful and calming. I love the water and shore, the colors so earthy not flashy. You are a good photographer.
Living your best life! Love it!
Love you, Dee. Happy Derby.
Boy, that David Geaney can dance.
Beautiful walk along Clogher Strand. Love the hand shadow pic. Love your haircut, Elaine.
The food at OOTB looks delish. Oh those oysters. That is the fanciest brownie dessert I’ve ever seen. Yum.
Hope your great weather continues. Weather here this morning is 29 degrees with 40 mph wind gusts, and snow. Good old New England!
Sue, sorry you are still so cold. Denver, finally warming up. Hang in there!
Joe, I understand why this is a favorite place to walk for you two. The pics are so calming. We should all have a special place like this to experience.
WOW, what a brownie plate. Bill is drooling! Stay well…..we love you guys.
