Still on the blogging from A to Z challenge. Today is D. My D is Deerpark which is in Calry, Co. Sligo. It’s a lovely walk with a stunning view all over Lough Gill. It also features the ‘Giants Grave’ Court Tomb.
It was a lovely walk and the weather stayed dry although it was quite cold. It’s a short blog today because my internet isn’t working properly.
I feel like I’m stalking you! lol, but these were so lovely, I had to look Sligo up on the map. 🙂 I love the third one especially.
Thanks Kristi 🙂
The photography says it all…..
Thanks Frances
Thank you for this lovely blog. I follow it every day. My sister and I are visiting Sligo this June to do some family ancestry work, (our great-great grandfather lived there) and your blog is a wonderful way to get aquainted with where we are going!
Thanks Jody, you will love Sligo. It really is a beautiful place. If you need to know anything just ask 🙂
I loved Sligo! Ireland is such a beautiful country and so full of history. I really enjoyed my holiday there and hope to go back one day. (I plan on posting a few places I visited in Ireland for “I is for Ireland”. lol
Thanks Karen, nice to hear from someone who has been to Sligo. If you let me know your blog address I’ll pop over and visit 🙂
Have you heard of the deer park in Nara, Japan? You feed the deer and they bow back to you! I will be posting about that in Day N of the A to Z Challenge…I’m doing it about my travels. I’ve never been to Ireland, though–looks lovely!!
Ooh I haven’t heard of it Marie, bit it sounds wonderful.
You have a great eye for fabulous shots. I love looking at places in other lands.
Thanks 🙂
Beautiful!

Thanks Pauleen 🙂
I love the first one. And the ones with the balanced rocks !
Thanks Ruchira 🙂
Lovely photos! thanks for stopping by my blog.
Thanks Viridian
Your shots–and your corner of the world–are gorgeous!
So tell me, when you walk beneath those lodged rocks, do you hunch a bit? I suspect I would.
Thanks for sharing the beauty. I appreciate it.
Best,

Yes you have to hunch to get under the rocks 🙂
What a wind-swept landscape that is. And the broken rock still balanced–how many centuries had it stood in one piece?
The tomb dates back to 3,000BC so that’s quite old 😉
