trees lough derg 8

This is just over the wall visible in this photo. Those are these Shamrocks carpeting the ground. The stone is greened with age.

I was walking the dog here, when I thought I saw something of interest in the woods. It was the strangest place I had been to for a while. I came across the remains of old low-walled stone structures. The "interior" of this old place was partially covered with a layer of shamrocks, and there were low stone walls stretching up the mountainside through the newly planted trees. The woods prevented the wind from getting through, so everything was deathly quiet.
