    Oh my, they have the snow and you're missing out on all the fun. :-|
    Take heart, it's only early February, perhaps you'll have some soon.

    That is a pretty sight. Saw the clumps in the distance but didn't realize they were sheep, just thought they were shrubs.

    How much snow does Galway get in a typical winter?

    p.s. now that I look at the larger picture I can tell they are livestock of some sort :-D

    I would guess 3-4 days worth on average Toni. Not very much.

    I like the footprints. The invisible man is out for a walk.

    Very nice, especially since it is in Galway and not Mayer. We had our turn this year.
