We’re back! Our quick trip to Ireland was super successful as you can see by the photo above. We were in Ireland for 5 days, we missed one flight, spent a total of 24 hours over a 48 hour period waiting in line to hang with Bruce Springsteen, we met a bunch of “Bruce Buddies” from all parts of the world, we got sunburns, we drank in pubs, we ate fish and chips, we saw some mummies, we visited the Jameson distillery and made it home in time to pick up the kids before bedtime Saturday.

We will probably do a lot of what we did last time; sit in pubs, eat, drink, visit the Guinness brewery gravity bar, stop by the Jameson distillery, go see Bruce, spend a night with Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros and maybe catch the new Wes [...]
