I'd love to meet a lot of you IRL :)

That's a lot of territory to cover, people to talk to, things to see in 3 hours...

Apparently speed dating culture has usurped art culture as well.

Calling it a "walk" seems a bit generous, my fat behind will not make the full route. Maybe an Art tour.

We are going to try and make it, Mrs. AHL has a ladies night out I think, but we will see.

Blarney sounds fun, drinks with the "artsy types." I am sure my conservative bald ass will fit in.
