Ivy Covered Cottage ~ by Linda
March 4, 2023
This lovely ivy-covered cottage is on the Cong River, in Cong, Ireland. Cong and the surrounding areas are where the movie “The Quiet Man” staring John Wayne and Maureen O’hara was made in 1951. The Cong River rises in the village of Cong. It is the outflow from Lough Mask, further to the north, that escapes through huge fissures in the cavernous limestone of the district and then reaches the highest level in the outer regions of the city of Cong . It is a short, but beautiful river, and is a central point of beauty and it attracts a lot of fishermen to its shores.
“May joy and peace sustain you, contentment latch your door, and happiness tis with you now and bless you for evermore.” ~ Irish Blessing
Thank you for your comments and critiques, I do appreciate them very much!
