Trip to Carlow

This post is a bit late because I visited the Rotary Club of Carlow this past monday. It's been a busy week...Anyway, my trip was great. The President of the club picked me up at the train station and we went to the hotel where they hold their meetings. The club is composed of only men, which was interesting. They kept asking me why there were dry counties in Alabama, they really didn't understand that concept, but then again, I dont really either...
After the meeting I went with two of the members to the county's "tourist attraction" called the Dolmen. Basically it's a very large monolithic burial place. It's amazing to imagine that these people put a 1,500 ton piece of stone on top of about 4 others. It's so much larger than the stones used in Stonehenge, and it pre-dates it. Well, on another note, i'm leaving in the morning for Derry which is in Northern Ireland. I'll be there for 2 days, then i'm going to Portadown to speak to their Rotary Club. I'll be back on Monday and will update then. Have a good weekend!
