A photograph of a white and blue ship. The vessel has a flat deck at the rear with a large white crane attached, on the deck a variety of large multicoloured buoys can be seen. Either side of the conning/communications tower atop the bridge forward of the deck are yellow sections (no idea what). Behind the ship is an expanse of hazy blue sky, with the greenish-blue sea below. The scene is framed towards the bottom by a v-shaped section of rock wall (on the right) and natural rocks (on the left), the natural rocks are topped with lichen.

The ILV Granuaile going about its business replacing buoys by the looks of it.

A photograph of a small bronze (I think, it is tarnished but the bronze shines through in places) sculpture of an upsidedown ice cream come sitting on top of a granite wall which is liberally speckled in lichen. In the background is a beach and the sea, both are out of focus; the sea also contains a prominent but singular yellow bokeh ball, might have been the reflection of the sun. To the right of the cone can be seen three pillars on the beach along with the sidewall of the steps down to the beach.

Quirky little bronze sculpture.

The legend of St Patrick’s Footprint The following local legend tells how St. Patrick came to leave his footprint on a rock at Red Island during his brief stay on St. Patrick’s Island. When St. Patrick was expelled from Wicklow by the pagan natives he sailed northwards and landed on a small island off Skerries, which is now known as St. Patrick’s Island in his honour. When the saint arrived on this island he had with him a goat, which was his companion and source of milk. From this island St. Patrick came to the mainland to convert the local people. While St. Patrick was ashore on one of these visits some people from Skerries went out to the island and stole his goat. They killed the goat, cooked it and feasted on it. When St. Patrick went to the island he found his goat missing. This made him very angry and in two giant strides he reached the mainland. The first step took him to the back of Colt Island and the second to Red Island, where he confronted the people of Skerries. When they tried to deny interfering with his goat they found they could only bleat. When they were prepared to tell the saint the truth their voices returned. Where St. Patrick stepped onto Red island his footprint is to be seen in the rock to this day. Since then the nickname Skerries Goats is given to the people of the town to remind them of this deed. St. Patrick’s footprint can be seen on the rocks near the Springboards, the tidal bathing place on Red Island. There is supposed to be another impression of the saint’s foot on the rocks at the rear of Colt Island, where he took his first giant stride on his way to the mainland.
