Nealons go back to the homeland!

During the week of November 13, members of the family went to Ireland to help Jack take a rest from all the studying that he has been doing at the Dublin School of Business. Our wonderful experience started with a weekend in Dublin with Jack as our tour guide. Sights to be seen included Trinity College, Dublin Castle, St. Patrick’s Cathedral and the Guinness Brewery.
On Sunday, we drove across the country to Galway. While there, we spent a day visiting Innismore, one of the Aran islands located off the west coast of Ireland. You may have heard of the famous Aran Island sweaters. This picture was taken at Dun Aengus - The Fort of Aonghasa which is one of the best preserved prehistoric sights in Western Europe.

We then traveled to Dingle on the southwest coast. To get there, we followed the coast road and crossed the Shannon River on a small car ferry. During this trip, we saw some of the most beautiful scenery that I have encountered in all of my travels.
Dingle is a lovely seaside town, well known for its traditional Irish music which we enjoyed and its pubs which we also enjoyed. We also learned about the Blasket Islanders who were forced to evacuate their islands in the 1950’s. Coincidently, most of these folks settled in Holyoke and Springfield, Mass.

On the trip back to Dublin, we stayed in County Kildare in a large, old farm house on a working farm where they raise cattle and breed horses.

A wonderful time was had by all and we look forward to the next Irish adventure.

Terry and Andrea do the Jimmy Fund Marathon walk!

Hi Everyone,
I am pleased to report that we did it!!! Certainly the longest walk I have taken since I was working for Uncle Sam at Fort Devens in 1965. Although I told some of you that I was preparing for this event, I was a little uncertain if I could do it. Well, we did and it was another experience of a lifetime for me. I walked in Roberta’s honor and memory. I wrote a message about her on the memory board at the start and they brought those memory boards to the finish line.
Maybe next year, we can interest some people to form a team.

Love to all,
Terry

P.S. We tipped our caps as we past BC.
