I’ll Fly Away

I’m going to be off the grid basically until we return to the States, so I wanted to leave you for the time being with this view of the Bray-Greystones Cliff Walk that we took today. It was seven miles of uninterrupted views of the Irish sea and the DART tracks and a seal playing in the waters splashing off the high cliffs.

They don’t make air fresher than the air up on that walk. You guys, it’s entirely possible that I won’t be coming back. Returning to Ireland after nine long years has felt like coming home, in a way that has taken by storm and by surprise, because there is a long litany of places in which I lived for longer than I lived in Ireland. It’s been challenging and hard but in a really beautiful, lovely way, and the icing on the cake is that I’ve gotten to show three of my favorite people in the world around my favorite little corner of the world besides Oklahoma.

I can’t believe how much I love and have missed Ireland. To be honest, even though we’re only just halfway through this trip, I’m already totally terrified of leaving because of how much of myself is still here and will never leave.
