I'm sittin' on a novel

It's been a while since I've been here typing on my blog...

I do, however, have good reason for my absence. I am three days back from an overextended fall holiday in Ireland with Harpswell. Expect another long-winded travel narrative from me soon (no exact dates promised).

In short, the trip was incredible, exceeding my expectations in several different ways:

I met up with a friend who I've been waiting a long time to see.

I drank Guinness.

I visited the Guinness Brewery.

I took in lush green Irish landscape from several train trips around the country.

I had Irish stew.

I visited several castles.

I kissed the Blarney Stone.

I daydreamed...a lot.

I bought a lot of English magazines and books.

I saw a few movies, namely "The Last Kiss," and "The Devil Wears Prada."

I discovered my new favorite drink...The Irish Coffee.

I encountered some leprechauns.


For those of you who like lists...maybe this is a sufficient description of my travels, but for those of you who drink up prose like honey...then you just wait...i'll be back with a story loaded with magic and breathtaking scenery....

In the meantime, enjoy the pictures I've just posted on my picture link.
