Ruby Tuesday



Hubbie and I went walking in Dun Laoghaire recently, and I got some Ruby finds!

Rain clouds gathered ominously as we set off down the pier, it is Ireland after all!



But it didn't deter these hardy sailors

And it didn't deter us!

And, as luck would have it, just as we reached the car again after a lovely walk, we felt the first few droplets of rain. Good timing!

  5. Its not much better in England.
    Nothing like a good bracing walk by the sea & getting in the car just as it begins to rain big time.

  6. Thanks for stopping by. Yes, I live in the campground that we bought in a fit of insanity 6 years ago. Sometimes I love it and sometimes I hate it. I suppose that would be true anywhere, though, so I try to see the humeor in it and make the best of it.
    Ruby slippers. They just don't look comfy, pretty, but not comfy ......

  10. What a delightful spot for a walk, and how lucky that the rain held off too.
