15 things I saw today

Hi all, I'm on a road trip with my dear friend Kimi so posts are gonna be a bit sparse still. Here are some things we saw today.

  1. Frolicking lambs. They will never not be cute.
  2. A large sand dune. At least, that's what it looked like.
  3. Donegal Castle. It was once burned partially down to keep the British from getting it.
  4. A cannon by the ocean. Strandhill is a nice town.
  5. Derry city walls. I love old walls, especially ones you can walk on top of.
  6. So much gorse. Still love it.
  7. No billboards. This is cheating a bit, but Kimi and I talked about how there aren't really billboards here in Ireland.
  8. Bloody Sunday Memorial. A very tragic piece of history remembered.
  9. Murals in Derry. There are so many here.
  10. Miniature horse. It was just a glimpse, but it was so cute.
  11. So many shades of green. The weather here has been mostly kind.
  12. Sun showers. Feels like home.
  13. Surprise surfers. It does not seem warm enough to surf.
  14. A stump throne. This was at Donegal Castle and it was very fun to pose in.
  15. A recipe for a cocktail painted on a hostel wall. Our room is called 'Mojito.'

15 facts about my dad

Just been thinking about some lighthearted facts I know about my dad lately. When he was young, he had a goldfish named Lysander He introduced me to Star Trek At Christmas, he would tear up at It's a Wonderful Life He used to send me articles from his Yahoo email account that he thought I'd like We used to play a game called "Nightmare" where he would lie down and we'd jump around (and sometimes on) him He would clip possible recipes for us to try out of newspapers and magazines We bought him a Paddington Bear to take on trips because we feared he'd be lonely and he always took it He had teddy bears for three different holidays We once had such a hilariously difficult time building a gingerbread house that when some frosting ended up on the counter, I plopped a gumdrop on it and we laughed until we cried He and his sister were born about 11 months apart We would try recipes from Top Chef He kept gifts I made him, even when they weren't great At Christmas, ...
