MacLellan's Castle and the war memorial. We don't often get snow that settles in the town but we've had 2 lots so far this year.
The war memorial statue is a bronze of a warrior protecting a child. the ruined castle was cmpleted in 1582, and for more information here's a link to an informative website:

The cold pavement is showing in the expression of Ozzy's eyes. We were only out in back for 2 minutes, but he didn't like it. LOL!

Day 280:
I wanted to shoot something outside today, but it was way too cold. This troubles me because I know it is only going to get colder, way colder. I have to toughen up quick because I will not let this winter keep me and my photographs indoors.

View from South East. You can spot it a mile off - or considerably further in this case - by the conspicuous white water tower on top of the hill at Great Canney.
Wendy began moving a number of our vegetables today. Mainly squash,
cucumber, and melon since they were in the same cold frame, but
needed to be separated before they cross pollinated and made weird
baby plants. Even though Wendy followed all the procedures including
move plants on a full moon the plants look very weak and unhappy
after the relocation.
The second running of the Devlin GAA 5KM Road Race and Fun Run was held in Delvin, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Easter Bank Holiday Monday April 1st 2013 at 12:00. The race was held as a fund raiser for Devlin Community Games and Underage GAA development. This 5KM is AAI approved and was open to competitive runners, fun runners, and walkers. The heavy rain from last year's race was replaced with bitterly cold and windy conditions which still did not deter a large crowd of participants from the local community and beyond taking part. The race started on the N52 Delvin Mullingar road and then proceeded to take a right-handed course around some side roads until the race emerges again on the N52 for the finish at the Devlin GAA grounds.
Refreshments were served in the Devlin GAA clubhouse after the race. Overall, the event was again a successful one. The race starts and ends on the N52 road which makes it a particularly challenging organisational task for the race organisers. However, everything was managed well and there was a great race event.
Overall Race Summary
Participants: Approximately 200 people
Weather: Dry, bitterly cold, with strong head wind
Course: Mixture of National Primary Route road and rural backroads with some difficult hills - accurate measurement. Almost an entire traffic free course.
Refreshments: Yes - lots - served afterwards in the GAA club.

I ran the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set!
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
If you want to contribute something for these images?
We do not charge for these images. We take these photographs as our contribution to the running community in Ireland. If you feel that the image(s) you request are good enough that you would ordinarily pay for their purchase we would suggest that you can provide a donation to any of the great charities in Ireland who do work for Cancer Care or Cancer Research in Ireland.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible.
