Hey Everyone, my wireless is still completely messed up, and my computer is about to die! But I wanted to let you all know that a post is coming soon complete with pictures of the 2500 year old fort called Dun Angeus from the Aran Island Innishmore!! I know I spelled most of those words…
And Then There Was Rain…Going on 4 Days Worth
So, our internet is basically down. I’m sitting in the office now connected to the ethernet cable, how old school, hahaha.

Bulls, Burns and Battle Scars
I woke up Friday believing it was Thursday. It wasn’t until LUNCHTIME that I figured it out! hahaha Weird how that happens. Anyway, I guess after I found that out I started to let myself relax a bit and the week started to hit me. By the time I got done harvesting onions last night…

Unattended Baggage Will Be Searched and May Be Destroyed
I’ve finally made it! Made it through the hectic, anxiety-ridden drive that everyone warned me about. Made it through baggage check in with one small roll-y bag (no charge the first bag) and two too heavy to carry for long periods of time carry-ons. – Technically one is my purse…but, you know. Danielle and I…
