Liam and I have kicked off our Irish-American Roadtrip and just posted our first video clip from the adventure. Have a look, follow the blog, leave us a comment or email...and say a little prayer for safe travels.
It looks like you are off to a fun start! I am so looking forward to our visit. You will have to let me know the dates you will be here, as soon as you figure it out.
Our next trip needs to include Georgia, so we can include a visit with you, Michele. It's been a great trip so far...we'll never hit all the stops on our wishlist, but we're having fun trying :)
I'm trying to entice them to come to San Patricio for the St. Patrick's Day Rattlesnake Races next year. They don't even have to bring their own snakes; they can rent one from the snake wranglers. Now what could compete with that?
And Captain Richard King, founder of the World Famous King Ranch (I used to work for them, but not in Captain King's day) was an Irish boy who ran away from an apprenticeship in New York and ended up a riverboat captain on the Rio Grande, then started buying up land between the Valley and Corpus Christi, which became at one time the largest ranch in the world.
But I think the San Pat celebration would be right up the boys' alley.
