Say something good about Ireland!

My grandmother. The birthplace of golf and amazing whiskey.

 

4 leaf clovers

 

My favorite place in the world. Headed back in November for my tenth trip.

 

Our great friends the Culhane Sisters from Limerick (Culhane’s Irish Pub - Jacksonville)

 

I have Irish family, and I can vouch for that. Never start a fight with an Irishman if you don't really mean it. Seriously.

 

They will step to it

 

Yup.

 

Irish eyes are always smiling while they drink you under the table.

 

No snakes!!!

 

In Dublin's fair city...where the girls are so pretty, first I set eyes on sweet Molly Malone...

 

I think you are thinking of Scotland.

 

i can go as far back at 1405 and see one of my Ancestors is from Ireland

 

Can you stuff me in a dog carrier and let me go too? LOL
Wow, beautiful, thank you.

 

A darlin for sure!

 

Love me some Guiness. Also, Irish folk music is a starting point for Appalachian bluegrass.

 

U2 for starters.
I discovered U2 War my first year at Florida.
I had the cassette and fall 83 blasted them on my boom box all the time that first difficult semester.
If any GatorCountry poster lived in the small apartment complex across from the O' Dome that year- I apologize 40+ years later...
I just couldn't believe how great it was and I wanted everyone else to know too!

But more seriously- many of my ancestors and my wife's too.
Fun fact- Irish population right now- 5.1 million. (About the same as SC.)
Irish American population- 31.5 million.

And by tomorrow afternoon when Tech beats FSU there will be one more great thing about Ireland!!
