I walked outside the tug today

as we were traveling from Corpus Christi to Houston, TX

and was reminded immediately

of a land far far away from here.

I never would have thought a view

of the Texas coast

would remind me exactly of the view I saw

while taking in the spender of those famous cliffs in Ireland called

"The Cliffs of Moher."

I immediately back peddled

and grabbed my camera

because I wanted to share with you what I saw

as I stood in County Clare Ireland a few years ago with my wife and

oldest daughter

overlooking this majestic natural wonder.

Tears almost came to my eyes,

because I had just traveled 3,280 miles

for this opportunity to see Ireland's most famous tourist attraction,

and

it

looked

just

like this!

I never did see the Cliffs.

We were standing in the thickest fog bank

I ever saw.

I'm not complaining

it just sounds like it.

I'd go back in a minute.
