An Indian Summer?

Indian summer: an informal expression given to a period of sunny, warm weather in autumn in the northern hemisphere, typically in late October or early November, after the leaves have turned but before the first snowfall.

Everyone has been talking about the impending 'Indian Summer' for several weeks now... I have to admit... I didn't believe it. Don't get me wrong... I wanted to... But the fact that we already had our heat on in our house and a fire in the fireplace every night didn't give me much reason to think that summer was going to have a comeback. I was wrong. It looks like we are having an 'Indian Summer'! For the last two days we have had amazing summer-like weather... in fact, I would say that the weather has been better than most summer days in Ireland! buíochas le Dia!! AND ... It is here just in time for my parents' visit! WAHOO!!!

Mom and Dad get here early on Sunday morning... I hope that the weather holds!



I took this pic yesterday... Nothing says "Indian Summer" like a game of hurling on the beach!
