something that handles and has the tech to tell me i'm on the wrong side of the road.
i def wont go till i get my passport. my ex married an irish woman from donnybrook. a chicago cop. lol. she says they dont take kindly to americans who think they are irish. i dont think that is real widespread there. i suspect she sorta means me.

i have one of those old guinness signs. the one w the toucan.
the brewery will be 1 of my first stops, fersher. kinnity is pretty central, so i will be able to get to most places in a reasonable time.
i'm hoping before i go to track down the places my family lived. they are from all over the country. who knows, maybe one of the old farms will be for sale. the only other place in the world i would live, besides where i am right now, is a farm in ireland.
