I'm spending a week in Glengarriff Ireland this coming July. Can. Not. Wait!

Man, so jealous. I think I'd shred my passport after I got there!

I'd run out of money too fast playing golf while drinking Guinness and Jameson:evil:

LOL, dumb post... :thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb:

Nobody needs money to be happy there, you just have to be alive! And I'd only work of getting a new passport should all my thoughts be wrong...

My brother took my picture with Anna Longlegs today! I am 6'1" so when I figure out how in the hell to post them from this ipad, you can see how tall she is.

I got an email from my dad stating that he took my mom to the doctor with a very bad cough. It is not pneumonia, but the doc said she has a loud heart murmur. She just turned 93 on May 10th, so this could be bad.

93? She having a good life

Not so much now. She is senile and pretty much just sits in the kitchen and stares out the sliding glass door, and naps a lot.

You and your family are in my prayers, Ed.

One of my two great-grandmothers passed away this past November at the age of 98 from an infection. A great, long, healthy life she sure lived. It was the first time I went through an immediate family member passing away.

Sorry to hear it, Ed.

Sorry about your mom, Ed.

My mother's check up went fine, oddly enough. My time is running out on my adventure and I am feeling a bit sad over that. The sun is out, at last, and I've even worked on my tan a bit. I had dinner with two friends last night, Steen and Nidal. Steen is a cop and his girlfriend Nidal is from Beirut. She made a delightful Lebanese dinner. Dessert was awesome, too. She scooped out cantaloupe halves and filled it with the pieces of cantaloupe, fresh Danish strawberries, and a chocolate-nougat ice cream. We had slices of watermelon on the side and it was great!

That kinda freaked me out man. Glad you had an excellent time and see the joy in things many of us don't see.

I could have worded that differently as I can see how some might have started seeing that as I was circling the drain! I feel pretty good, physically, and people in the Irish House told me I look a lot better than I did when I arrived, and even better than I did just a couple of weeks ago. I'll be feeling great just in time for more chemo and then I will have to deal with that mess again and all that comes with it. Ugh.

What happened to that picture of Anna Long Legs you promised?!?
