The title says it all. After visiting Ireland twice, I knew I'd never be the same. Its breathtaking beauty captivated my heart. My desire is to share all I experienced and hope a few may understand my love affair with this small country. Many don't. My high desert home is about as opposite as you can get from the lush green meadows and craggy coastal shorelines. My heart longs to return to Ireland. Until then, sharing all I've seen and felt while there will have to do.

Coming Home
"I expect that every Irish-American coming to Ireland says visiting makes them feel good to be here. But I feel drawn to Dingle, I feel a sense of coming home. For me that is what it is. This is where my grandmother, Catherine Ashe, came from. And I look forward to coming back again." Gregory Peck
While I don't know where my Irish roots began, I do know that going to Ireland was like coming home again. And Dingle, with it's majestic beauty and quaint seaside town brought Ireland to life for me.

I love the colours and fronts of those houses.
