A run, a climb, and grocery shopping

A friend was in town Saturday afternoon an decided to stay the night so we could go on a long run this morning. We have a 10K coming up in October and a half marathon in December. We drove out to two rivers park to run. I love going out there. It is so peaceful and you always see lots of deer. As we were starting mile four, we noticed the sign saying Pinnacle Mountain was about six miles away. That led to the bright idea of climbing Pinnacle Mountain. So after running four plus miles we drove over and climbed the mountain. It was freaking hard!!! But we did and it felt good. The view is gorgeous from the top. 

I was in Kroger Saturday morning and noticed the new beer taps they put in. You can now purchase growlers of various local beer while grocery shopping.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...
