It is hard getting an Irish breakfast in Bristol, RI, normally. Luckily the pub always has it on St Patricks Day.? It reminds me of my wonderful visits to Ireland, and the incredibly friendly and helpful people I have met through genealogy searches. A special thanks to Riobard for helping me set foot on the Kilcatherine homestead of my Downey relatives. The only comparable feeling, of attachment to past and future ancestors, was when I held each of my grandchildren. Happy St Patricks Day to all. Paula
