WRECK!\Ireland trip

Check this out!
Before.......................




After!



Now tell me that hurt!
There will be an after the after picture soon!. Lol
Yes, thats my new new car (weeps). Funny, my last post was about my first car. I had since sold her and bought a newer one. This one is nicer than the old one by leaps and bounds! Anyway, there us a story behind the second and third  pics. My best friend (courage) was driving her (Mary Anne) and went to make a left turn and there was a car coming. It didn't look like the car was coming to fast when he looked, so he went to make the turn. The car was actually coming really fast (like 80 mph!)and almost hit my car (he didn't even slow down when he saw my car in front of him!) but courage swerved out of the way when he saw how fast he was coming and avoided being hit, but then my car fishtailed on him three times and went through a wire fence and hit a tree. (btw I saw all this in my rearview mirror as I was driving another car!!) No one was hurt thank goodness. The guy who almost hit him didn't stop either! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT!?! GRRRrrrrrrrrrr Anyway, courage is fine, the damage to the car is not really as bad as it looks. Its almost all bodywork. She is in the beauty shop as you read and will be back on the road soon.
Now if you think you can recover from that shock, here is something to enjoy!

The Bell choir I am a member of went to Ireland for a week! the big places we went were Dublin, Cork, Shannon, Limerick and the Cliffs of More and any place in between! I took around 500 pictures many of which will be posted here with a update when I get the time to upload them. I will post a few though just to show you how sweet it was.

This is Blarney Castle.

and this is the view from the top..........


words can't describe how beautiful the land is!
This perticular Castle is the place where the blarney stone resides (update on that later)
I myself am still in shock!  There is so much raw almost untouched history there in that place!
I will continue to post pictures as I get to them
Laters!

LOL! Poor Mary Anne... that's really terribly sad. But at least she's getting some attention. At about 30 (or however old she is) she needs a face-lift. Awesome-cool that you got to go to Ireland--and it wasn't raining every day, either.
