Meet Maria and Uncle Paddy


Maria, originally from Ireland, now lives in St. Paul and operates Celtic Journeys, an agency that organizes tours to the green Isle plus many other international places.  Last June Jim and I were going to go on a literary tour to Ireland but had to cancel because of illness.  Another time I hope! Last week-end we went to the 36th Annual Irish Fair on Harriet Island in St. Paul and saw Maria and her Uncle Paddy, visiting from Ireland,  both of whom were in the Celtic Journeys Vendor booth. Great people!

  9. I have been to Ireland three or four times, but not since 1980. I want to go back. But, which of the other trips should I eliminate?
