Bon Voyage!!

Bon Voyage folks!!!! I am off to see the parents in Connecticut and do some leaf peeping!!! My three travel companions are counting down the hours now, the countdown has been going on for about 30 days. To say I am relieved that the day is finally here is two fold, a bit of rest and no more count downs!!!!

Here is a picture of the three amigos on top of our local castle, yes you heard me correctly!!! Ferns Castle sits in our village and is directly behind the school. When the weather is nice and the children have earned a break their teachers take them on a tour of the castle, How fun is that!!!! Ferns Castle is one of the most historic sites in Ireland and it is what you call a hidden treasure. I could go on and on about the history of area and the significance of Ferns to Gaelic Ireland, but this is a blog about quilting so I won't go there!!! If you are travelling to Ireland be sure to put this on your itinerary and book your B&B with me and I will give you all the local details!!!! I will update you all on my trip to the States when I get back and I am sure that I will have loads of goodies to share with you!!!!!!

Have a great two weeks people!!!!
