The only pics I have are in the fairy garden.

The ones in front I bought recently. The others,original yellow ones, don't seen to have flowered much, they have been there for years! I made the pic a bit bigger so you can see them clearer!

Welcome Lori,

Spiddal, County Galway is a lovely place and has great scenery!

Thea I live in Oklahoma now and was born in Penna. Yes it is expensive but if one wants to know where he came from you can make it happen. The leaves are starting to come out on the trees here. It's raining right now of which we are in dire need. Starting to be concerned about the water table for we are on a well. Got to get back to my research.

Hi, I joined the Ireland group for two reasons, 1st my great grandmother was born in Spiddal, Galway. My GG grandparents, Barbara and Patrick Geoghegan and 1 sibling stayed in Ireland. I want to go someday and find their graves. I got tears in my eyes when I saw in photos of Spiddal,so beautiful, it must have killed them to leave and come to the states. The other reason is I LOVE primroses and there are  limited  varieties that you can get here. I have ordered seed  and plants from Barnhaven Primroses, in France and seed from Chiltern Seeds in the UK. I'm guessing  primroses are a big deal in Ireland as well?

Thea, positive teens in temperature happening weekend on, so Spring trying to get her in Med. Hat. Moved snow over to other side of yard away from house. Took in a House and Garden this past weekend, excellent. Busy changing parrots today and washing their covers. Did have a chance to sit outside on front door landing with my old dog Missi, the sun was so nice, she snuggled up to me.

William what state are you in ? i was thinking about you doing the ancestry thing . and wanted to remind you that you have friends in here and there may be some way we can help . i know that doing ancestry .com can cost quite a bit of money . the snow has not left the house yet . so i am praying that my little cherry trees are doing well . My husband just saw a bumble bee . so spring is on the way to my house . it will probly be another 2- 3 weeks before it hits there .
