The
Snapper's Tour of Ireland |
 "As if to contrast
the pastoral
equine experience I'd just had and remind me that some things are universal
despite any seemingly idyllic landmarks one might encounter, I next
walked directly beneath the Yellow Steeple and was drinking in the
historic beauty when I encountered a group of teenagers who were
huddled behind it to do some drinking of their own. They were
pounding down what appeared to be a full rack of 24 bottles of beer
and one of them asked me in a sardonic Irish lilt if I liked the “Yellow Steeple.” I didn't want to
seem uncool and stodgy so I said that it was alright I guessed and
they responded with “It is only a bleeding pile of stones, Man!”
True enough I supposed and muttered something about them being 14th
century stones that had seen quite a bit of history."
