I've said it once and I'll say it again. I love living in Europe. Money is definitely well spent on traveling. St. Paddy's day was so fun. I met a lot of people, acquired a love for Guinness - and drank much of it, experienced some bizarre weather (winds, sleet, hail, snow, sunshine), bought A LOT of stuff, to include this excellent painting from the Museum of Art, and so much more.
