TRAVEL: How Cool Is This? / Crusader's Grave in Tipp

When I was visiting St Patrick's Well outside Clonmel in Tipperary, down from it, in a village next to it, there was a lake and river, and a unique and cute church.

The church had a small graveyard, and in it was a grave of a Knight of the Crusader's.

It's where I met the woman who told me stay away from the water and go to the lake in the Knockmealdown mountain's.

Well worth a visit!

That is very cool!

........

Funny, when I met the women, it was so nice to meet her. Such a normal, warm mammy-ish kind of woman.

Walking her dog.

She said she loved him and adopted the dog.

The dog was so friendly and funny and wild.

He was jumping in and out of the river.

We spoke for ages.

I wanted to go into the water to dip my feet in and she warned me not to.

There was also a man walking his dog up from us, but wouldn't say hi or come near us.

He was walking around the lake and garden area, and up and down the perimeter of the place with his dog and was very..guarding.

He never approached us, just let us chat and do our thing, (the walk was circular you see), and was in such a distanced, work, perimeter guarding kind of mode.

Very stoic.

It was just me, her and him.

And their 2 dogs

This was after Halloween, Winter, 

November 2024.

Again another storm and wild day appeared after that. Wild!
