Notable memories

The Beer

I know I'm supposed to really want to try the beer, but at the end of all days so far ... All I want is a coffee. Lol

Kerry Camino

Finished. I made it over 36 miles in Ireland despite the rain, mud and slop on the trails, and an infection. Crazy.

Saw a doctor for my thumb. All things considered, she thought it looked okay for what it was. She patched me up, gave me a prescription if I need it, and proclaimed me healthy. Can't put a price on piece of mind, which I now have.

Dingle way

I now continue with the Dingle Way for 4 or 5 more days. I have flexibility in the schedule.

Random thought

I'm doing okay for a guy of 65 years young.

I feel exhausted tho'.

I started on a dystopian story about a woman who loses everything in an unplanned and unnatural event.

When I get going, it just seems like I can't stop scribbling more and more words on the paper.

Dingle

I finally made it into my first Irish pub tonight, but that was because they had a sandwich special that was too good to ignore.

A lot of the places here have €25 dinners, and I just really wasn't in the mood for that.

But I did make it into the Dingle pub where I had a half pint of Guinness, a grilled sandwich of ham, cheese, tomato and onion, with a serving of french fries and a very good, very different kind of salad.

Tonight at the hostel is a group of musicians and they're actually playing folk music in the next room. That's kind of a nice feeling.
