Really, really love this! Looked up what it was and saw a lot of images of them, none like this, the IR really suites it! It must be a long drive from Dublin? Are their a lot of these? Cool stuff!

I didn't spend to much time in Ireland, only a couple of days, in Shannon! what a great place to live, the more I see it the more I realize that I screwed up spending to much time in Britain though it was nice too! Maybe there is a trip in my future!

Ohhhhh its a magical place - but you have to take a trip around the country and just get lost in small towns and roads and villages - that is the ireland i love with all my heart

Well, your photography surely makes it look so magical, and from my short time there, dose confirm that, but yes I'd like to see the whole country, I'm sure I missed so much! Do you think you will stay there for the rest of you life?
I find when traveling that you fly into the cities, but if you stay in the urban areas you seem to miss the flavor of that country, I'm always driven to go to the rural areas, small towns, road side cafes, small shops. People in small towns are more likely to stop and take the time to let you know who they are, I've even been invited into peoples homes for dinner a time or two, and they will break out their good wine or best cheese, always so proud of who they are! Though you can see some great thing in the cities of the world, such as art, all my best memories are from some little town in the middle of nowhere, with a name I can't remember, with people that I only remember their first names, but what I do remember drinking homemade wine, eating great meals, and laughing, always laughing. Many people around the world don't like Americans, so I like to also take the opportunity to let them know who we are as Americans, and who I am a regular person.

Hmmm! I guess John Lennon wasn't so wrong! Imagine all the people...
It would seem that the people who have little more than their health, a roof over their head, and food in their belly's are the happiest people and I don't think they realize it, nor do the people who are after things and can't get enough! The people who have little are the ones that are most willing to share what little they do have! Where is the happy medium?
It would seem that your Ireland was my Greece. Soon after I arrived in Crete I was adopted by a Greek couple Nana and Flipe they were an older couple that were the adopted parents of the weather office where I worked. When they found out that I was from Sicilian decent, Nana would tell me that the Sicilian's and the Cretians were of the same face. I ended up spending a lot of my free time with them, where I learned enough Greek to get by on, learned to shop and barter in the market place, and generally, learned to live as a local, the funny thing was that I looked like a local, so much so, before I got a car, the American bus to the Navy Base would pass me by. Nana was a little woman maybe up to my shoulder but you couldn't discounter her because of her size, a 300 lbs man would be at a disadvantage, wow what a pistol. Flepe was a tall beautiful Greek, blue eyes, silver hair, great build, he was once the captain of the Greek Dance team and danced for Anthony Quinn in Zorba the Greek, a rather famous man. They were great! I would walk into their driveway and yell Nana, Nana, I would hear Charlie come in here, stop yelling, and something in greek, she was usually cooking and promptly fed me, she always had to feed you. Within a month or two I had become her project, Nana would teach me a phrase make sure I could say it so that I could be understood and the send me to the store or the bakery to get a kilo of bread or a can of coke or something I might want when I was on my own, teaching me to be able to survive I my own in Crete. We would go to the market, and we would set out to buy something, any thing, Nana would tell me before we went how much we should pay for something and then we would go out and barter for it. I was used to giving the price marked on it, if I would pay more then she thought it should be, she would give me hell, and then give the merchant more hell, by the time she was done we would pay half of what I would have paid! I have so many memories form Crete, and I will tell you them until you get tired of them. Quite frankly, I haven't thought of some of these memories for a long time. Please tell me some of your stories, and tell me about yourself as well!

Out ability to put our greatest talents to work in destroying each other has a long and bloody history.

I cant agree more - its mad that people are creative much more when they wanr to destroy and kill each other - technology that kills us is much more advanced than the one that saves us :/
