Far from the hustle and bustle of Dublin lies the southwest of Ireland, known for its craggy cliffs, charming villages, and most of all, green as far as the eye can see. Centuries of warm ocean breezes and the pounding surf have carved a unique combination of rocky coastlines and verdant hills. The Ring of Kerry is perhaps the region’s most-visited landmark. After a week in the town of Killarney, though, with its nearby National Park, home to both stately homes and rushing whitewater rivers, you’ll have a unique look, away from the crowds, at the real Ireland. Visit the seaside town of Dingle for a perfectly authentic Irish experience, as you sing alongside the practitioners of the Emerald Isle’s emblematic musical traditions while sipping a Guinness, all in the cozy confines of a neighborhood pub. Your eyes will be smiling as you take in the tranquil pleasures of Ireland.

W.S. 1.144 STATEMENT BY PATRICK 0'SHEA, N.T. (retired) Castlegregory, Co. Kerry. In 1913 I was friendly with the late Austin Stack whom I had met through my association with the Gaelic League and G.A.A. Austin Stack approached me about organising the Volunteers in Castlegregory where I resided. At that time the village of Castlegregory was poor as far as the national spirit was concerned. It was a recruiting ground for the R.I.C. and many of the families had sone relative in that force. The people of the surrounding area had, however, strong national feelings. It should be understood that while the people of the village were not friendly they were not actively hostile. We got the Volunteers started in Castlegregory although we had only the support of about six families in the village. Austin Stack, who lived in Tralee, came to us occasionally at week-ends, and Ernest Blythe, who was living in a neighbouring area, helped in the organisation. There was no circle of the I.R.B. in our area before 1916.
