Chris and I are now in the small town of Kinnitty, Ireland, relaxing in the parlor of the Ardmore Country House B&B. Well, I’m relaxing and Chris is furiously composing and typing the next blog post. His goal is to get it published before we leave Ireland in 3 days. This will be a great story with lots of good photos, but we are falling further behind because we are quite busy enjoying this great little country. In fact, a friend posted on FaceBook today, where are Chris and Jeannie, literally?!
While Chris is busy researching, composing, typing and tagging pictures, I thought I’d find a quick way to bring you up to date. As many have realized by now, I don’t write much. Numbers are my focus and you wouldn’t find my spreadsheets very interesting. I do have a great pivot table which shows our different categories of expenses totaled for each year since 2013 (pre-slow nomad life). I like seeing how we’re managing our expenses as we move further down this traveling life. But I digress from the intent of this post, and you’ve probably already started dozing!
So you may be wondering, where are the Fooshees and what are they doing that they are too busy to write. So without further delay, here is a summary of the highlights from the last 3 weeks, and the topics of future blog posts. We have had a bit of rain here but not enough to slow us down and catch up on writing. It will take a bit of compression and elimination for Chris to bring our posts up to date. Stay tuned…

16 Apr 2016I was getting reallyworried as I hadn’t heard from you all and was getting ready to try and find you, when someone else posted the “where are the Fooshee’s?” What a relief!
