Im just back from spending a week in west Cork exploring with long time artist friend Richard Smythe and his wife Jurgita.We spent a day climbing Claragh mountain and looking out over the fertile flatlands of North Cork, another strolling in the sunshine on the barren but beautiful Sheeps head, exploring archaeology on Mizen head and finished off with a relaxing day of sunshine and tremendous views in Garinish Island and Glengarriff woods.  Was a great week out, even with a multitude of seasons and weather, still had a great time, lots of laughs and more good memories than you could count!
