IRELAND or Eire Land?: Jon and Ann's Great Photos

Hundreds of you have been asking us to show more of Jon and Ann's great pictures...(well actually only 1 of you so far). To anticipate, in fact exceed, the clamor for these photos from the masses, here you go. A few tips: 1st, you can click on each of these smaller images and they will become HUGE on your screen. Do this since Jon has this 85 pound, 17 inch telephoto lens that he's been lugging around Ireland, not to mention the 2 power generators to keep everything charged up, so enjoy the quality of these photos and let him know the workout has been worth it!
2nd, after you've enlarged the photos, go to the back arrow on the top left of your monitor and it will take you back to the blog.

The Irish folks could not believe the run of 3 days in a row to have all this heat and sun. Ann was prepared. The cows and the castle are enjoying the view as well.

Many rock structures and stone walls leading down to the sea...this creates a stunning visual actually, when you think of how long these have stood up to the pounding weather.

A purple, mushroom like flower...1st person to guess the name of this gets to be Jon's roadie on the next trip to carry his camera gear...

Beautiful buttercups on our hike to the mini cliffs of insanity

Look at the massive shoulder muscles Jon has now from the lens lugging...

This guy is Bill Mack and he's standing in front of Bill Mack's Bar, but what made this interesting is he is copying the painting of him in the window. I think it's a cheesy gimmick, but hey, to bring in some business why not?

Lovely folk music at a small protestant church..the huge Catholic church is across the street.

Had to throw in the picture of the first B and B we stayed in for Dave's sake. He voted it as having the best potential. Turns out it was excellent, and so were number 2 and number 3 so far. It would be hard to pick the best from among these standouts...we have been blessed!
