  • The hills of connemara loom above this quiet stream where a visitor wets his line and hopes for; if not a trophy; at least his dinner. Such peaceful glades; where you can picnic; fish or relax in the shade by the running stream are found all through the mountain ranges of western Galway. And there's little fear of overcrowding since; though sheep and donkeys are many; men are few. The best way to see the area is by rental car; which gives you control over your own time and stops.

Original Toronto Star caption: The hills of connemara loom above this quiet stream where a visitor wets his line and hopes for; if not a trophy; at least his dinner. Such peaceful glades; where you can picnic; fish or relax in the shade by the running stream are found all through the mountain ranges of western Galway.

Outside. Lineman Norm Olan was planning to have a quiet dinner Sunday. But an 'emergency' telephone call abruptly changed his plans. Instead he spent the next 23 hours shinning up and down icy power lines in freezing rain. It didn't take Olan long to see that the so called emergency was, in fact, a disaster.
