Golfing in Ireland

My husband went on a golf trip to Ireland this month with a group of friends, and THIS is where they stayed.

So. Jealous.

It reminds me of the houses in the movie Pride & Prejudice. I don't care if it's old and musty and drafty with ancient plumbing and no cable...I would live in a place like this in a heartbeat.

Thinking about my daughter's teacher this morning, who lost her husband on 9/11 in the WTC attack. A death is never something to 'celebrate' but at least the man responsible for killing so many innocent people is no longer breathing the same air we do. Osama Bin Laden lived for 10 years afterwards, so I still don't feel like it's "justice", but at least it's something.
