As I was going over, the far laying Kerry mountains...
Heh, I've been singing and hearing songs about the Kerry mountains for a few years now, and I guess I know now why people write about them. They are unlike any other mountains in the world (Well, at least not like the Alps, the Rockies or the Applications). They are not quite true mountains, but not yet small enough to be hills. I took a walk from Dingle town out to the head of the peninsula on Saturday. I climbed eagle mountain and looked out across two bays (Tralee and Dingle)and down on little villages, not even a stones throw away from ancient round towers. I felt like singing, so I chose "Be Thou My Vision" to sing there at the top of a mountain in Ireland. It was a good experience.
I am in Galway now, and looking forward to seeing what its like. I am not too far from a park, so I think I may spend some time there. Just about every town I've been to so far has had a bay, a river or lake. It has been tranquil to say the least. The day here is beautiful, so this is going to be a short post, just know that God is good, Ireland is still lovely and I am healthy and well. Love you guys, and I'll try to get a longer post in next week!
