Green Day

It's St. Patrick's Day here, which isn't particularly notable for me since I didn't want to get trashed on a work night, but it reminds me that it was almost ten years ago that I took my first trip overseas to Ireland, County Kerrey(or was it Kerry?). We were on the Dingle Peninsula in a cottage that looked directly out over some spectacular cliffs to the Atlantic. That was a great week, I don't think I truly appreciated beer until that time. Awesome scenery, great people, so much history and art--and most of the pubs have live music every night of the year.
If I had to live somewhere outside the U.S., Ireland would definitely be at the top of my list.
