St. Anns, Dublin. This is the Anglican version of St. Anns. There is also a Catholic version of St. Anns Church in Dublin. I guess there was a shortage of saints, so…….?

We took a day trip to of Dublin to a Neolithic site called the Hill of Tara. This was on the path towards to hill and the ancient site.

No Neolithic in Ireland would be complete without the ever present sheep.

Our Family next to the bus we had for the day. We had an amazing guide for the day who was full of info to share as well as humor. Left to right in the photo: Jess ( our daughter in law), yours truly, our son, Ian ( his son, with the ginger hair), Elliott, our daughter Larissa, behind Elliott ( she kept on task, organized and busy throughout our trip in Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland; her son Adam, my wife, Dianna, Maddy, our granddaughter peeking around Dianna and Mark, our son in law.

My next post will take us to Kinsale, Ireland. Thanks for coming along!!

St. Patricks Cathedral, Dublin.

The surrounding grounds of St. Patricks Cathedral is a great place to hang out or meet friends.

Grafton Street, Dublin

St. Andrews Church, Dublin.

River Liffey, Dublin. One of the many bridges that cross the Liffey River in Dublin.

.

Ha’Penny Bridge, Dublin.

St. Andrews Church.

Trinity College, Dublin.

Trinity College, Dublin.

Signage in two languages. Pretty common throughout Ireland. There is and has been for some time, a concerted effort to save their native language, Gaelic.

Trinity College Library. They are in the process of restoring most of the volumes so I would say about half are offsite, in some sort of cleaning and restoration. Still a pretty cool place and a very popular one.

Quick health update: original plan was to do immunotherapy for one year, which would’ve ended with November’s infusion. Last month the oncologist told me I would be doing immunotherapy ‘indefinitely’. So, a little disappointing, but you just move on. Not everything in life has a beginning, middle and end.

All good 👍🏻.

Nestled between Delridge Ave. and 35th Ave. is a couple mile stretch of green space. This is a marshy, pond area created by a beaver. We saw a family of ducks as we walked along the trail, and an old power substation complete with a high wall and cameras surrounding it.

Health update:

Disappointed, but not surprised. Pathology report came back positive for cancer-actually two markers- TTF-1 & napsin A were both positive. See doctors on the 19th and 20th, plan the next move. This is chapter 3 of this journey that started in early 2019.

🙏🏻

All good. 👍🏻
