You won't see any new posts for the next two weeks. I'll be in Ireland on a family vacation. My wife was born and brought up there, so it's time for a visit, time to kiss the Blarney Stone again (that's me in front of Blarney Castle in the rain, the last time I was in Ireland), time to go to Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Cobh, Cork, Kerry, Sligo, and a few other places too.

When I'm back--in early June--I'll post the best of the Ireland pictures here.

Meanwhile, I'll have a Guinness for each and every one of you, unless I'm in County Cork. Then I'll order up a Murphy's.
