Hi, Blake!

I came across your xanga when doing a search for Greystones, Ireland, earlier today.

I'm going to be there in a month, for a prayer conference. It sounds like you really enjoyed your time there! I'll only be there a week, but I am looking forward to it very much, and gathering as much info as I can. Any gems of advice you'd care to pass on...something you wish some one had told you before you went?

By the way, I've enjoyed reading through your blog. You sound like someone it would be easy to befriend, had our paths ever crossed. Well, maybe virtual paths count... :)

Hey, thanks so much for the tips! I appreciate the reply.

The conference is put on by World Harvest Mission annually.

They want to raise awareness about the spiritual life of Ireland, I believe. As it happens, I'm considering moving over there to be something of a missionary...
which honestly, sounds a little crazy when I put it like that, but what can I say? I'm just feeling called....

Hey--so you stayed at the YWCA, right? We will be, too. What's that like? Do they have laundry facilities?

By the way, you have very similar taste in music as my best friend, Brianne.

Just for the record, you are awesome.

Thanks so much for the info, and also just for allowing your enthusiasm to rub off! I'm already pretty freakin' excited, but conversations like this just make me even more so.

!!!!! <---(I use multiple exclamation points to try to convey my enthusiasm.)

Thanks again!!!
