HAPPY St. PATRICK's DAY...

Éirinn go Brách

which is translated

"Ireland until the end of time".

The Anglicization of this Irish language phrase is the more familiar 

Erin go Bragh  - or Ireland Forever!

My Niece and I took a month long road trip a couple of years back and drove the entire perimeter of Ireland.  Not nearly enough time - but still brings a Mona Lisa smile and a wee tilt of my head at the memories.
