There was a glorious sunset on Sunday evening as Pat and I went with Mike Robinson to attend Gertie Dolan nee Murray's funeral. Gertie was a sister to the late Vera and Ina and enjoyed playing her violin. Gertie was a first cousin of my mother and it was a bit weird as we did not know her family.Lucky enough other cousins such as Jimmy Murray and his brother from Knockcroghery were there.
Last night it was time to look skywards at the aurora borealis lights which had green and pink hues in the fingers of light.Colin went to the bog last night to see the lights and take some photos. Last Sunday evening the sunset was captured by him from the hills around Clerhane and from the quarries. We await the results.
