It's given me a few ideas of my own. :)<br /><br />My favorite thing about Ireland is how friendly and helpful the Irish are. When I studied in Dublin, I left my phone on a city bus. I rang it and ended up drinking tea with the woman who found it and her daughter in their home.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14284438428591395167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7377478805474751337.post-64325798778964076582011-08-19T06:18:35.978-07:002011-08-19T06:18:35.978-07:00My favorite thing about Ireland... hrm... the coun...My favorite thing about Ireland... hrm... the countryside.

And the clutch... sew fun!

It's always been a dream of mine to head over there, rent a small cottage in the countryside, and spend hours just looking out over the hills and valleys, taking in the colors.

Richard Barron and Ellen Scullin came over about 1850 and settled in Michigan. One of their daughters, Margaret, married a Hughes boy, and two of their boys married Conklin girls. Joseph Hughes and Agnes Conklin had 13 children, and #8 was my grandmother, Patricia Agnes Hughes, born on March 17 (St Patrick's day). She had 10 children, of which my mother, Patricia, was #2. So I owe a lot to Ireland. I love your stitching!
