    Screams TEXAS!
    Will send you some domestic flight links

    And go look up that cantankerous ellusive BIRD while you're in Ireland. You can retrieve the Blarny Stone he swallowed whole 5 years ago. No-one's been able to get a word in since.

    HAVE FUN

Then to Donegal, we will have a car so we will tour all over. Will be there for 2 wks. I so want to get to Kildare to see the Irish National Stud of course to Dublin where I plan to chain myself to Bono's house

    My Aussie sister is also coming to the States, but in June, and she also coming to Minneapolis where I and her brother and multiple nieces and nephews live. Minnesota is a great place -- just hope it won't too cold for you!

    I have a rather rousing sonnet that would be perfect for this contest, but alas, it is a good bit more than 40 words I'm afraid.

    How strict are you about the 40 words rule? I've written a poem about Ireland, but it's 4 stanzas of 7 lines each - much too long, I fear ( I didn't notice the 40 word restriction at first).
