Good to hear from you all! Yes, it's very, very green, and my scarf smells a lot like a wet sheep just now because, well, it IS a wet sheep, isn't it? I'm in Donegal town now. Kim C. I thought you were going to be in Ireland around Thanksgiving, no? Rob-o, I was just in Taafe's last night, had a few pints waiting for the music to show, but they never did so I went across the street to a place that's only been open a month now, where there was some brilliant accordion and fiddle playing going on. Galway seems to know how to have fun; sorry to be too early to see Roy Harper at Roisin Dubh next week... and Mike, hello to you in Limerick, yes the Atlantic is gorgeous. In Lahinch the waves must have been 15 feet high, it was crazy! But some folks were flying a kite on the beach anyway. Blackhead Bay is stunningly beautiful, Matt, you would have an even stronger sense of what a good song that is if you came here to visit, I hope you get the chance. Diva, I'm looking forward to Dublin, I'm sure I can manage to have a good time there! Wish I could get up to Inishowen, but time and the bus schedule won't allow; must be a special place. So, kat and Brett, that's the closest I can come to a travelogue just now, hope it will do. Thinking of you all. Cheers, Margaret
