Oh gosh I would have been that priest in a former life no doubt. Good for him. Also thanks for taking me back Torrey Brooklyn I love from the 80's. How I miss those autumn days and cold winter nights....... the market,the botanical gardens, Prospect Park.

Lovely photos of New York and I presume it is not all bad there. I like seeing your parents and they simply exude sensibilness in a typical Irish wild scene I wonder what the rounded house is for presumably in NY. Seeing a dolman is always, I saw one in Louth on one of our retirement outings and May have seen the one @ Howth. I really feel they likely portals to the Fairy and other realms
