Karen's Home on the Blog. Fiber, Gardens, Love, Life - not necessarily in any order. Tuesday, January 31, 2012. Darrell explains the history of the burning of the Boat.He might get tired of telling the tale every year, but I love hearing it. The Boat is lit. Ragnarr watches with double fisted drinks, so I can take a picture. What do you see in the flames for the new year? So whats the tale? Its not mine to tell. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Líníocht Blog - blog of J G O'Donoghue: Kilmore Quay
http://liniocht.blogspot.com/2015/07/kilmore-quay.html
Sunday, 12 July 2015. Stopped at Taghmon castle along the way. The many thatched houses of Kilmore Quay. Saltee Islands off in the distance. The sea and sky making a show of their amazingness. Popped over for the day out in Kilmore Quay in co. Wexford with the girlfriend, lovely little fishing village, was a bit mad busy today though. But beautiful place with lovely thatched cottages, and the sky and sea were just showing off with their prettiness! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow me by Email.

Monday, 29 June 2015. What a great age we live! Working on an illustration of a motte and Bailey and just thinking its amazing the age we live. Here I am, reading about various sites archaeological features on archaeology.ie, while viewing the sites from above via satellite imagery on Bing and at the same time looking at what the sites look like on Google Streetview, pretty cool to have that at ones fingertips!

Líníocht Blog - blog of J G O'Donoghue: Excavation, Wedge tomb cemeteries and the Cliffs of Moher
http://liniocht.blogspot.com/2015/08/excavation-wedge-tomb-cemeteries-and.html
Sunday, 2 August 2015. Excavation, Wedge tomb cemeteries and the Cliffs of Moher. One of the many wedge tombs in a very small area. The reason I was up there, the first excavation of a wedge tomb in the Burren ever! The strange revetment wall surrounding the tomb, which would have been used to hold up the cairn material. The inner wedge tomb, wasnt much left of it, just one of the side stones and the front entrance stone. Outside the tomb they found an inhumation! You can see the bones here.

Líníocht Blog - blog of J G O'Donoghue: Fossil me this Batman!
http://liniocht.blogspot.com/2015/08/fossil-me-this-batman.html
Wednesday, 5 August 2015. Fossil me this Batman! The flint nodule with little quartzite pebbles found with it. The fossil under my magnifying lamp. Brought over from Denmark for me, my mother found it on a beach there, which was pretty cool gift! On facebook we have been having this discussion as to what this pecular thing is. Those who know what they are talking about say its definitely flint, but what about the fossil inside, anyone know what that could be? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Líníocht Blog - blog of J G O'Donoghue: Three Castles and a little Folly
http://liniocht.blogspot.com/2015/07/three-castles-and-little-folly.html
Monday, 6 July 2015. Three Castles and a little Folly. Little Island or Carrigenan Folly, a type of garden or estate ornament built by the gentry. Wallingstown castle- A Fitzgerald tower house. Barryscourt castle- the seat of the Barry family. The heavily overgrown entrance. Inside Kilnatoora castle, its lovely to take a stroll inside a castle like this by yourself, one of the reasons I prefer ruins than reconstructed touristy castles. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
