I've been working on and off over the least year on my blog about my experiences living in Ireland and things I find cool here, like the castles and other amazing places, as well as tips for travellers and immigrants. If anyone's interested in following along: https://www.inmyireland.com

Awesome!

Ooh cool! Except it'll depress me that I'm not there!

Come visit then!

Someday... When I have older children and fewer goats. Oh I'll never have fewer goats. But someday I'll have enough money to pay a goat sitter! My FIL went there once and said it was gorgeous but people weren't overly friendly. Must be the area he was in, because that's not the experience you've had right? He felt like everyone was like yeah... Give me your money and scram. Lol

The people here in general are very friendly. I met some that were a bit , but you'll get them everywhere I guess. The majority are lovely though.

He probably just had bad luck! He is also very Italian and if you know Italians, their definition of friendly is mildly suffocating to some of us, lol!

Just one question - how in the world would a person frame up a roof to cover this?

The Irish are reserved, so if you're too friendly… I can understand that!

I wish I could tell you… I was in there, in that castle, had a wonderful time too, but didn't pay much attention to the remains of the roof and didn't take pics. I did notice on some ruins that I explored that they built roof beams into the walls to anchor them. I'll see about getting some pics for you in future. Sadly most of these old places are roofless now.
