Inishcrone

*Spelling correction from the last posting: Knocknashee
Yesterday we executed one of the most difficult jobs on the farm: sheep herding. Even with the help of sheep-dog, Kimmy, this was an unweldy task. I came out with a few scratches. Then we drove them over to old farmer Patsy, with sparkling blue eyes, and his son Doona helped us shear their wool.

Today we took some time off and drove through Ballina to Inishcrone. There we ate seafood at the golf club and walked along the sandy beach. The limestone showed a conjugate set of joints, more fossils, and some intrusive volcanic rocks. We ran into the surf schoolers, who appear as tiny dots in the crashing waves.

Thats the news for now. <3
