I've been to Ireland three times. I went to Dublin and walked over the Ha' penny Bridge, went down to Cork City by train. Did some shopping around Oliver Plunkett and then headed to the west of Cork where I went to go see St. Finbar's chapel. While there , there was a wedding taking place. I also went to Armore where Nora Roberts' trilogy, The Gallaghers of Ardmore. The books are entitled, "Jewels Of The Sun", "Tears Of The Moon", and "Heart Of The Sea". I highly recommend them. And the places where these books was inspired. I've seen the stone tower there and walked in the cemetary that is mentioned in the books.I also walked along the beach there. Walking in those places made the books come that much more alive for me. I also went to Avoca where "Ballykissangel" was filmed. I had a pint in Fitzgerald's Pub while there. I made time to go to the Waterford Crystal factory and bought a small piece of crystal that is now highly treasured.

If you'd like a link to see my pics of my travels there, please send me a PM.

Thank you gentlemen. I'm sure that I would have you on a merry chase after me. *chuckle*

Here in Texas, redheads are actually kind of scorned. We're not the classic blonde beauties that Texas is known for. And the men here prefer the blondes over the redheads. The blondes attract all the male attention, but I think us redheads stand out more.

Well I know that a lot of the women up north love to dye there hair blonde. I am not one for blondes, but it is really getting hard to find a red head, heck the last one I met dyed her hair blonde too.

Irishguy,

My family is from East Galway of the O'Lorcain (Larkin). I went to visit some cousins who live in Claddagh.

Here's a website that details the family history.
