I just discovered your blog. How uplifting! Thank you! I came across your blog from Ireland. I am of Irish/Scottish decent. Have you been to Scotland? If so, do share.

I’ve visited Scotland and I love it more than almost anyplace I’ve ever been. The Highlands are magnificent, and while I don’t know exactly how much Scottish ancestry I possess, it felt like home.  There’s such strength of character in the Scottish soul, and the subtle and understated sense of humor of so many Scots is delightful.  I only hope to go back sometime.
