Thanks so much for sharing these photos. Since the Famine Walk was in March, the February landscape gives one an idea of their suffering. The Reek (Croagh Patrick) does take a good picture. Appreciate it. Mary Ellen Chambers Oceanstrands <oceanstrands@yahoo.com> wrote: Photos of the landscape of the Doolough Valley and the road from Doolough to Louisburgh are in the following link. The photos were taken in February when there was snow on the mountains. There's also a photo of the Famine Monument. Imagine the starving people in tattered clothes and no shoes, walking in a snow and rainstorm along the then dirt and rocky trail hoping for food. They had to sleep outdoors overnight in the snow and rain in frigid conditions. http://www.castlebar.ie/news/article_1515.shtml Oceanstrands ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to IRL-MAYO-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
