A tired Galway Girl

Where did we leave off…oh right. A very tired Erin was making her way from Dublin to Galway with her brother on a Saturday morning in January.

A short, overdue trip to Dublin

The rumors are true — I visited Ireland once again! It was a little over five years since I was last there.

For any loyal readers, you know the reason I started the blog was to write about my travels during my time abroad at Maynooth. While this trip didn’t involve a lot of studying, I still loved being back on the Emerald Isle for a few days.

Erin Goes Everywhere 2022 Wrap-Up

I started writing this on the last day of 2022 (right under the buzzer). 365 days flew by! Of course there were some technology issues. So here’s my wrap up, a wee bit late.

I got to visit a lot of great places in 2022. Some were brand new, and others were old favorites. I’m grateful for each experience they brought me, both positive and negative.

Conquering Cascade and Porter: Two Adirondack High Peaks in one day

It’s been a while since I drove through the Adirondacks in New York. In fact, I decided it had been too long, and asked my friend if I could crash on her couch in Lake Placid for a weekend.

We decided to conquer Cascade Mountain early Saturday morning. Join me on this journey, won’t you?

Wrapping up summer with a Jersey Shore music festival

Picture this: it’s the dead of winter, and I’m freezing in Western New York. I see an ad for a summer music festival in New Jersey, with promises of good music and fun times. To break out of this winter funk, I buy tickets after seeing Stevie Nicks headlining.

Fast forward to September 2022. I’m in Asbury Park, NJ, for Sea Hear Now Festival. It’s sunny, 80 degrees, and there’s not a cloud in sight.
