Weather is here…

I wasn’t able to complete a chapter for my usual post today. Too much to do…

So far the Irish weather is dreadful, I got the full body, super humiliating pat down going through airport security – something showed on the scan, not sure what that’s about- the bus driver from Shannon to Galway was extremely rude which prompted the older ladies (regular riders) to talk about him loudly behind his back. Good stuff.

Oh, and we have tickets to see Connaught play the Ospreys at rugby tomorrow evening. Woot! 

Eastbound…

I head east to Ireland on Thursday for ten days. I’m not sure how this will impact my posting. Either I will be noticeably absent or annoyingly present. Depends on what kind of trouble I find to get into. I have no idea what I’m going to do this time. The trip is completely spontaneous. But poor planning is the key to flexibility!

One nice thing about returning to a place you’ve visited before is the comfortable familiarity. “Home” base will be Galway but from there I will wander. Perhaps a couple days in Dublin. Or maybe Northern Ireland… I’ve never made it up there. We’ll see. Most of all I am looking forward to rest, to following my feet, to not having a schedule and being free to do as I please.

So maybe there will be photos, poems, fairytales and stories. Or maybe there will be nothing at all!
