Thanks for sharing, seeing Ireland again makes me want to go back and even try a game of golf. I would have to carry about 1,000 golf ***** with me to finish 18 holes.

Golf brought me here but the country itself could definitely keep me here for much longer. I'd have to open a good 'ole Southern BBQ restaurant and do it right, but other than that this is such an incredible place.

And on the topic of lost golf *****...the deep dune grass is a real menace. I have a few stories of hacking, or attempting to hack, my ball out of that stuff, and then losing it when it lands no more than 10-15 yards from where I was standing in the first place. Amazingly, I came with 12 golf *****, and I've purchased around 21 since I got here. I have about 12 left in my possession. A loss of 21 ***** in 12 rounds around here is fairly impressive in my book!

Made it to Italy on business twice in 2005. We were able to briefly visit, Venice, Bologna, Florence, Rome, Arrezo and Ravenna. Can't wait to go back. I climbed the bell tower in Florence as well. Crazy narrow in places.

If you like to read history, I would suggest Brunelleschi's Dome. A great story about the guy that built the dome, Fillippo Brunelleschi. It is still the largest brick dome in the world, not bad for something that was finished in the early 1400's.

Did you see St. Mark's in Venice. It is amazing how different the cathedrals are.

Those Ireland photos take me back. I loved my trip (sister's wedding) when I went and the Cliffs of Moher are absolutely amazing! I didn't go to as many golf courses as we were checking out every castle we could but loved every minute of it!

Whose car are you using in your signature? Not the one I have seen you drive around town.

So your course of study is golf?
