If the pictures you see of Ireland do it justice then you are very fortunate. I am second generation American with deep Irish roots based out of County Donegal. Not sure I spelled that right. Grandfather immigrated in the late 1800's.
Hey Tammy.. its very green here, mainly because of all our rain..not good for the joints though but good for the soul!
Donegal (you spelled it perfectly) is way up in the North West- so our two counties would be at the very opposite ends of the country..we are sort of the 'doggies tail' if you can visualise ireland as being like a Scottie dog if you sort of turn the map round a bit!
