Premium T. treks to Ballinrobe, Roundfort, Kilmaine, and Cong on a Harry Clarke pilgrimage. Clarke was the Michelangelo of stained glass, and five churches right here in County Mayo can boast examples of his brilliance. The locals we conferred with in a Roundfort didn't know this, though, and had trouble getting their heads around the idea that two people from Seattle would visit Roundfort intentionally. One older gentleman may have known who I was talking about; it was hard to tell as his Mayo brogue bordered on brick-like thickness. As we drank tea (on the house, it turned out), the men at the bar placed bets on televised horse races. The publican phoned them in while a 30-ish blonde out of an Edna O'Brien novel surveyed the proceedings quietly from her perch at the end of the bar.
You've seen her before: No rivals in Roundfort, but just another pretty face in Dublin. She appreciates the male attention, but despairs of her choices. She hates Roundfort, but fears to leave...
