Ireland Journey in Winter
You are so brave to go to the lovely Emerald Isle in the worst season of all! I'm glad to hear, however, that you were able to see all the good parts of this beautiful country--namely, the green fields, the warm and friendly people, the dedication to their sports, beer, and country--everything that makes Ireland a choice destination. Enjoy your many happy memories for years to come!

Cliffs of Moher
Hi, guys. I have been to the Cliffs of Moher twice within the last ten years--first time, it was very clear, lovely weather (this is October, mind you!), and we had great views all around! The second time it was rainy and windy and we didn't get to see much at all. It's well worth the time, however, whenever you see it, I think. I'm glad you got some good (and interesting) photos!

Thanks for the wrap-up
Well, fascinating closure story about hurling. One of my favorite sports to watch (after poker and quilting) is curling and I bet that I would similarly enjoy hurling. But, I still don't completely get it--you go all the way to Ireland to spend days wandering around in the fog and rain in a bitty little car, imagining from pictures in a travel brochure what it is that you are looking at and can't see, and finally ending up with a great story about men in short shorts with big sticks and small balls. Jeeze girl, this is Montezuma County! I know that we have all that and more here, and it's right out there for you, not shrouded in fog and rain. Oh well, I suspect that things like that look a lot better when you are somewhere other than your own back yard or out by the sale barn. Welcome back into our patch!

Only one more blog for this trip to post - already looking forward to the next adventure. :)

trip planning
Hey Alisa, I wonder if I could be involved in any future trip planning that you and Todd do, so that I can be sure to plan something, anything, else. Thanks, Chuck

hurling
Very funny rendition of a nightmare-ish holiday! It seems that 'hurling' has different meanings depending on what side of the pond you're on - or what plane you happen to be 'hurling' in...likely a long time before you eat another big greasy hamburger!

The little victories in life
I think you had this experience only so that you could relay the story so humorously to the sympathetic reader, who has been in similar straits with far less humor to apply to the proceedings.

on hurling
My god Alisa what a fascinating never-ending beginning for your trip! I reckon that Irish hurling has its roots in Colorado in your case. I'm laughing a lot, and feeling only a little bit guilty around that. I had a really bad day a couple of weeks ago and yours makes mine appear to be wonderful! A whole new perspective for me. Thank you for providing that. Well, I look forward to more laughs as you blog, and as your trip comes into better times. I know it will. Best, Chuck

What a great experience you had! I loved reading about your rim to rim hike and your photos are great! Together they tell a fantastic story. We just returned from the Grand Canyon, Zion and Bryce.... The Southwest is an awesome section of our country where nature has created the most beautiful formations with rock. I could go back tomorrow and still feel the goosebumps on seeing these beautiful places. Thanks again for your wonderful post.
