West Cork
	As we rode into West Cork we found this strange house. It looked a bit drafty but what the heck. Nothing a pot of putty wouldn't fix. I wonder is it still for sale?
On our way to Crookhaven we came across this amazing piece of beach. Ron went in search of the mermaids but all he found to his disappointment was some shells...so he filled the tank and we ploughed on to the big smoke...Crookhaven!
	This is just a stonesthrow away from the world-famous and always so crowded Crookhaven. A town with only pubs,pubs and loads of pubs. For every local they have three pubs!
You probably heard of Mizenhead. It's on the coast of Ireland and you can see a lighthouse. It's the closest point to the ustates nights!
	What can I say? The views are magnificent! You know that on a bright day after two you can see the top of the statue of liberty from here.
Instead of hanging a bell they put it upsidedown. How convenient for me with my full bladder. So I got my territory marked!:-)
	Here is the tree, known locally as the james' tree and was used by a famous rock group on their album cover! Due to legal complications, all the James' in the area took offense to thier name being used so local parish priest Joshua O'Malley offered his name to them and so was born Rattle and Hum!
On we marched along the sheepshead drive... why its called this is anyone's guess 'cause as you can see there are no sheep....loads of rocks... but not a sheep in sight!
	Still no sheep...more rocks....
Here is a nice waterfall providing loads and loads of water to all the sheep on the Sheepshead drive!
	Here is the second nearest point to the Ustatus nights...sometimes if you listen carefully you can see the New York skyline!
And here is what is in front of us! Supplies were running low, and we still had all this to go!
	We have no clue where this is but we took a picture anyway just so we could say we were there, wherever there is.
This is the famous arm rest known the world over for its ability to stand there and not move...even when there are loads of elbows on it.
	So, years later we found the end of Sheepshead drive, not a sheep was seen...was it because Ron was in the area?... or was it the bad hair?
