Hi Mary, I just met you on
ICQ yesterday and today I have spent hours viewing your webpages and links.
Thanks so much for sharing it with me. I am getting very nostalgic about
Ireland and wishing I could return there.

Hello, I just wanted to let
you know that I enjoyed your site very much. It's been four years since
my last trip to Canada, which I have come to love. I too have visited the
wonderful St. Anne de Beaupré. It is a beautiful place and the wax
and cyclorama museums are wonderful and lifelike. I enjoyed your page about
St. Anne's.
I would like to make a request
regarding http://www.moytura.com/stanne.htm Is the music on this
page copywrited? If it is not, could you please tell me what the name of
it is and perhaps the composer. It is absolutely lovely, and I would like
to use it in the background of a future webpage. Once again, only if the
music is public domain or permissable.
Thank you. Susan Griffin

I was very impressed by your
site "My Place Among the Stones" I'm the acting Content Director for a
new web site called "Circle of Learning" which is set to launch in late
November. We're in search of flagship content creators, and the type of
content on your site would be great. The idea behind Circle is to allow
individuals to "teach" others what they know, from the silly to the sublime.
It's particularly targetted at people 50 and over.
If you agree, what I'd suggest
is that my team would extract from your geocities web site a "course"...
that is to say, a simple travelogue about the West of Ireland based on
the materials in your site. We'd also provide a link back to your site,
or to wherever you wished. And of course, your name would be there as author.
There's no money in this, only glory. But we really hope you'll
agree to let us repurpose your content in this way... It will benefit a
lot of people.
Thanks,
Jake Prescott, Circle of
Learning

Hi
I very much enjoyed viewing
your website! I too drove that magnificent drive you describe from Westport
down to Leenane, and I have never forgotten the impact the scenery had
on my very soul.
Like you I am of Irish descent
and very proud and interested in it. I am starting to compile my family
tree, and I hope to move to Ireland next year (probably Mayo!). I know
the country very well, both north and south. I am a TV producer and I used
to live and work in Belfast, working for UTV, so that gave me the opportunity
to travel widely. I normally visit Ireland once a year (can't keep away!).
One quick question - I am
very taken with the idea of climbing Croagh Patrick! How long does it take?
Are there different routes up the mountain or is there just the one path?
How fit do you have to be?
Best wishes,
Tony

Very nice site.
I made my first trip ever
to Ireland in September. My mother, Anne Cathering Devaney was born in
Easkey, Sligo about 1910. I found the cottage where she was born in Carrenrod,
still lived in by the widow of her brother, my uncle Patsy.
Our bus took us by Dunguire
castle on Sep 19, and I found the sight of the Burren fascinating---equally
awesome as the Cliffs of Moher nearby. If I ever encounter a leprechaun,
Pookah or Banshee when I return to Ireland next year, I am convinced the
encounter will be in close proximity to the Burren.
Keep up the good work.
May you live as long as you
want---and never want as long as you live.
For those who have just
joined me on this page why not go to the beginning of our travels and see
some of the places in The Start of Our Journey
through the West of Ireland.
My
Place Amongst the Stones gives the history of my company name, Moytura
- a celtic heritage going back thousands of years.
We journey to my own parish
of Lackagh - a small village just 12 miles from
Galway with a mighty big history. Learn all about the Battle
of Knockdoe - one of Ireland's bloodiest of conflicts in the 16th century.
We then move on to take a
quick jaunt around Galway City; and then to the
heart of Connemara - with its wild and wonderful
beauty.
From there we journey south
into County Clare and see The Burren - a place
that has lain undisturbed since the Ice-age and of immense botanical, ecological
and archaeological importance.
Visit Ireland's finest early
monastic heritage centre in Clonmacnoise,
County Offaly; and to my favourite of all the early Christian Church locations
- Clonfert, South County Galway, with its beautiful
tiny 12th century Cathedral of Saint Brendan. Come with me around the grounds
and see the Bishop's Palace and the 1000 year
old Yew Walk.
While on the Clonfert pages,
you can learn a potted history of Saint Brendan
the Navigator, possibly the first European to set foot in North America
in the 6th. century. And join me in the celebrations when this tiny cathedral
was listed in the World Monuments Watch 2000
most endangered monuments.
Come with me on my 'Famine
Journey' which starts in Westport, and moves
to Sligo, my Dad's County and the departure port
for many of the 'Coffin Ships'. This part of my
journey ends in Grosse-Île on a tiny
island east of Quebec City.
On this page you will learn
some of the history of our Famine Refugees and find the final resting place
of over 6,000 of my country folk who died within sight of their first freedom
in over 300 years. This is where many of the Irish roots in North America
started.
Our Journey moves on to other
places on that visit to Canada where we see Quebec
City and some of Ontario's lovely places
and then to two of Canada's famous Catholic Shrines - Saint
Anne de Beaupré and to Cap-de-la-Madeleine.
Finally, join me on my pilgrimage
to a peaceful haven in a war-torn country in Medugorje
in Bosnia-Hercegovinia. The other areas of my Web site can be found in
the drop-down box below.
If you are interested in
Irish history or anything to do with Ireland why not visit our new additions
where you will find a large selection of genuine Irish goods as well as
Irish reading, music & viewing material!:
Moytura's
Irish Store, Moytura's
Irish Bookshop, Moytura's

I have added links
pages of other places related to the places we visit, links
to leisure activities in Ireland i.e. golf, fishing, horse riding,
sailing in Ireland, festivals, entertainment etc. and some of my friends'
home pages.
