On June 11, 2007 we travelled to Galway for three days of
music, dance, touring and literary culture and then onto
Dublin for three days of immersion into this vibrant city
during the celebration of James Joyce's Bloomsday!

"Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths of night and light and the half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."

"Spoons Murder"
read by Fr. Jim

"If a man does not keep pace with his
companions, perhaps it is because he hears a
different drummer.  Let him step to the music
he hears, however measured or far away."
