Hey everyone... Today is my last day in Ballyvaughan. Very bittersweet. I'm packing up all my things and will be home before I know it. Last night Kaitlin and I made it to Kilfenora one last time to set dance. It was so much fun I can't even tell you!!! I will never forget how the locals made us feel so welcome and how they even dedicated the last set to us. I have to get back to packing but I will see you all soon.

hey all... my time in the Burren is quickly coming to an end :) Today I walked to school in a torrential downpour...  something I won't miss. The exhibition is only a few days away, and today the studio floors got painted. Unfortunately I forgot to rescue my laptop out of the barn before the paint happened so it is being held hostage until tomorrow. 

Tonight is the last night for set dancing. Katelyn and I have hired the local taxi man Tom Connelly to take us up to Kilfenora for the last time. Tear tear. My goal is to dance all of the sets tonight. To remind you all... each set is made up of 4-6 dances and usually there are 5 sets in all. It is absolutely brilliant. Last Sunday I took some more pictures of the dancing and I can't wait to show you all.

Hey all...

I'm making a conscious effort to blog more often as you can see. Today is a beautiful day in Ballyvaughan. The weather has been a little cold for the past few days so it is great to have the spring back. There are flowers sprouting up everywhere, and the sun is shining, and that always makes everyone a bit more happy. This week is still crazy with all the exhibition stuff. I'm planning on displaying a lampshade that I'm making out of eggshells. It will be pretty sweet. Also a few of my photographs and collages/cut things. I will make sure to document all of my work so you all can see. Only 17 more days. 

xoxo,
