So, the little country bird went to the big city last week, and had a fabulous time!

I went to stay with the lovely aisling_door  and her family on Long Island.  Such good people.  Her dad immediately started treating me like one of the family, including admonitions to "Eat! Eat!", and I got to meet her younger brother and the bulldog.  Her mum was at a reunion

Thank you!
It was DEFINITELY one of those "remember forever" trips....and I really have to remember, since I was so caught up in the experience that I didn't want to take a step back from it to use a camera LOL.

Now remind me when you're going to Ireland...I hope you will be better about piccies than I was

I'm so glad! I love those trips :D

I'm going to Ireland for the last two weeks of August - and I promise I will take loads of pictures!!! I have a wonderful camera now so I plan to use it :D

Have you written about the camera? What kind is it? Sorry to be snoopy, but I'm in the market for a digital that takes really good up-close photos, but isn't the size of a small child

I don't think I have written about it, but it's a Nikon CoolPix 5000. It's really good but fairly large.

It's kind of old - it was a present from one of my professors.
