moving to Ireland

I am always interested in hearing from people who are interested in moving to Ireland...i like our cottage in County Tipperary because it reminds me of the place where i grew up i Western Pennsylvania..... a place that no longer exist....a few years ago i revisited my beloved valley in the rural area just north of the city of Pittsburgh.

Hi Bob,
That's awesome that you guys are leaving soon! I bet you are super excited, and what a great ticket price!! I would love to be able to spend a year there, or even live there. Especially if I could live on the West coast. Of course I would have to have some way to earn a living...but I'm sure I could figure something out. Will you guys be working or just taking it easy?
I did have a good trip. It was really fast though and I wish I could have spent more time in each of the places we went. I think I have a couple pictures on my page from my trip. I hope to go back again soon. You guys will have to keep in touch. I'm sure you will have a blast. Will this be the longest stretch you have stayed there?

Happy St. Patrick's Day Bob!!

P.S. got a ticket (well three tickets, I ended up splitting it into three seporate flights...which is stressing me out because I'm worried about missing a flight if one is delayed!! Ah well.
Here's hoping next time I travel there it won't cost as much!!

After hearing the music on your site I will have to check them out. I did not start playing fiddle until I was over 40. My youngest daughter liked what I was doing so she started when she was 7 and is now 11. She sometimes goes and plays in the pub with me from time to time. If you love fiddle music, its never too late to start playing.

forward to hearing more about you cottage in
Ireland. have a great day and remember to go on the
