Up early

When I wake up on a Saturday or Sunday and it's earlier than any time I've gotten up for class all week, I have to ask myself, Why? That is the situation I find myself in currently.

At least it's for a good cause. Today, I'm going with Laura and Molly to Sligo, which is a county North of Galway. We're going to see what we can see, a little of Yeats Country, a little of Innisfree. We have reservations to go horseback riding this afternoon, hopefully the weather will be nice. It's freezing here now, and usually it actually gets colder throughout the day. My walk home from campus is invariably colder than my walk to it.

We're spending the night in Sligo, so I'll be back tomorrow, hopefully with a camera full of photos of a gorgeous horseback ride and Yeats' favorite places. Bye!
