From Kilarney to Blarney
Well as previously mentioned we visited Blarney Castle yesterday, having driven out of the treacherous Ring of Kerry earlier that morning. It was raining hard, so no iPhone picture, we did however get lots of video and pictures (including Patrick kissing the Blarney Stone. I opted not to press my lips against a rock millions of others have slobbered upon). The castle itself was in decent condition, but their method of preservation, was disappointing with too many modern appendages for my taste. After this we continued driving bent on finding camping to save money. We found a beautiful forest on a mountain and followed a bike trail getting some amazing evergreen forest captured.

Phil says, “You jerk, I wish I was there!” (You don’t think he’s jealous of his little brother, do you? No…) I am so glad that you guys are having an amazing time over there. We can’t wait to see more pictures and hear all your stories when we come to California next month.
We miss you and love you,
Melis and the boys!
Oh, and Josiah says, “Hi, Uncle Patrick!” (Ezra is just bouncing around right now.)

It looks so peaceful! I am so jealous, as I sit in my AAA office today (although, it IS nice and dark blue now! You’ll have to see it when you return. We keep having to call poor old Mario with our computer issues.

O.K, it has to be said, I myself have suffered greatly from the treacherous ring of Cary! HA HA! Glad Patrick got to kiss the blarney stone, but Wills come on, live a little, step out side the box, it’s only a stone. Beautiful picture, the lighting is perfect. Much love mom
