Well, I've made the decision to return to the US so it's time to pick up those last minute memories. One of my favorite places is the Foxford Woolen Mills. I think I've posted about it before. ( http://www.foxfordwoollenmills.com/through-the-years.php ) But the mill was begun in 1892 by the Sisters of Charity to provide employment for the locals. They harnessed the waters of the mighty Moy River to run the looms. It's still a wonderful place to visit and spend a few euros!! I had a wonderful lunch in the cafeteria, walked through the shop and then headed back for home. It's a 1 1/2 hour drive but through some beautiful fields and rolling hills. Another wonderful Irish day!
