Happy St. Patrick's Day from Slemish

Slemish is an old volcanic cone in County Antrim where Patrick is said to have herded sheep while a slave-boy in Ireland. It is also a landmark that is visible for many miles and, if climbed, a wonderful viewpoint. This picture was taken on our last visit to Ireland and was taken either by my wife or my daughter-in-law. I am not sure which one of them took it. The day has special meaning for us, since it was on a March 17th that we moved with our family to Northern Ireland and were there for nearly 10 years. While there we lived in County Antrim within view of Slemish.
