Fourknocks

Here’s a rare picture of me, taken by Sydney:


Fourknocks is a Celtic group tomb, oriented so the sun shines directly on the main burial chamber inside on the winter solstice. I’m standing on top here, but we went inside, too, where there is one of the only representations of a human face from neolithic Ireland. The tomb is older than the Pyramids. Cooool...

It has been so long since there has been blue sky in a picture on your blog.

That said, this is a really dramatically cool photo of you. It's like a book jacket photo for a cold-war spy novel...

Tell me the resident of the tomb didn't take the picture!

That is a cool picture. It's like you are on top of the moors. Did you nip into a pub afterwards for a whiskey and coffee??
