Our House
1 min read IrelandWe’ve rented a nice little house in the village of Tramore, County Waterford in Ireland (click for a map). It’s about a 10-minute drive to work for Kathleen, and about 15 minutes to the edge of Waterford, the nearest big city. We’ve got 3 bedrooms (we’re ready for company!) and 2 1⁄2 baths. We’ve even got a distant view of the Irish Sea from our front windows. Tramore has a great 3-mile long beach promenade for walking, a seafront amusement park, and plenty of little shops in a downtown that hangs on the side of a really big hill.
Sailing along...
1 min read Ireland“Left side, left side, left side, left side.” We got a car today, so I’ve been repeating that little mantra in my head. Truth be told though, on many roads here it doesn’t matter which “side” you drive on, as they’re only wide enough to have one side anyway. We’ve got a nice little Ford Focus with a manual transmission, so I’m adjusting to shifting left-handed, while my right hand keeps reaching for the stick.
We Have Arrived!
1 min read IrelandWe’re in Ireland! We got in Sunday morning around 8:30. Our friends Willie and Katherine picked us up at Dublin airport and drove us to Dunhill, where Kathleen will be working. We had a great day seeing some of the sights around Dunhill, including a nice walk along the Irish Sea. Then it was off to the Dunhill Folklore Festival, where we got to see dancers and singers from Sardinia as well as some local folks.
Irish Rose Consulting is Going Multinational!
2 min read IrelandIn September 2006 we’re relocating temporarily to Ireland. My wife Kathleen will be working on a year-long project for UW-Stout on the southeast coast of Ireland, and I’m going with her. But fear not, the work of Irish Rose Consulting will continue. And since I’m in the technology business, I’m going to capitalize on modern technology to keep working for new and existing clients. Using voice-over-IP telephone service, I’ll have an American phone number and a toll-free number that will ring in Ireland - no international calling charges for you.

"Big box" retail doesn't have to be a big ugly box
1 min read Uncategorized This Barnes & Noble store in Rochester, Minnesota was built in an old theater. Hey Walmart, take note. You're a wealthy corporation. When you move to a small town that doesn't want a big box, why don't you see if you can come up with a better design that fits the scale of the community instead of using your lawyers to steamroll the community?
