The first day of summer

Hi everyone,

People in my new writers class (held at the Bandon library as short distance away) were welcoming each other yesterday and pointing to the fact that it was the first day of spring. Happy Beltane! We didn't see fires or orgies up on the hill, but are relatively certain that if you went to visit the stone circles at Drombeg today you would find the remnants of ceremony.

As we move into summer it is appropriate that I am moving from diagnosing what is next for me professionally and personally, although in this case (as you will see if you want to follow the links to my other blogs) they are closely related.

Meanwhile summer brings with it longer walks on the hill (to wear the puppy out for the day), Margie beginning to be gone as she does child minding work (leaving me with puppy care!) and warm summer evenings (now lasting until almost 10pm). Life is great over here in Castlepark and we all hope it is great with you as well,

Lots of love,
Alana
