This was a family gathering on a grandiose scale of the sort that I’ve never experienced before.

There were to be an estimated 300 members of the Power clan at an official “Gathering” for the gala event of a three-day Power fest. The location was Gardenmorris — a grand old house and estate near the village of Kill near Waterford City.
