Homage to New Grange in The NY Times
 
Fascinating article on New Grange (6/21/20) in Travel section. During my last trip to Ireland in 2006 I was there. My published comments were approved via The New York Times community last night.

When I approached this site, I debated whether or not I would slither through the entrance to see it. Pondering I found the courage as I thought it was a once in a lifetime event, so I entered.
It gives one pause on so many elemental levels from light to darkness, a burial chamber revealed by the Solstice.
Simple in our minds perhaps but a profound gesture from the Ancients to us.
Erin go bragh never meant so much as here deep in this Earthen passage even in Century 21.
