Hiking The Ireland Way with The Hiking Rev, Stage 16 - Glenelly Valley Way, Gortin to Moneyneany

[@judithpearson3968]

Afternoon Rev. Gloomy skies but I can tell you have the joy of the Lord in your heart. Am loving this series. The countryside is just so beautiful. Guess the sheep kept talking even after you told them to knock it off. If you can't get them to hush, ear plugs work everytime. Lol. I really admire your ability to hike like you do. So glad you'te willing to let this old, somewhat decrepit gal go with you. Thanks for sharing your journey with me. l'm thoroughly enjoying it. Take care. Stay safe. See you next video.

My grandfather (Papaw to me) loved to walk. I inherited that from him. When I need to think, I walk. When I need to calm down, I walk. When I want to relax, I walk.

[@TheHikingRev]

Thanks, Charles. I had a Papaw too. Sadly, I never saw him walk very much. 😢

Another segment of the Ireland Way is in the book. An awesome trek Rev. Thanks so much for taking us along. Cannot wait until the next chapter. Stay safe, stay well and keep 'em coming.

[@TheHikingRev]

Thanks. I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos.😁

Great drone shots. What a beautiful place

[@TheHikingRev]

Thanks. The drone shots were worth the weight of carrying the drone.😁

[@Thedagoneman]

@@TheHikingRev amen

[@douglasoster7102]

I could hardly believe the distances you were covering and then sometimes going well into the evening and then still being quite upbeat Thank you for the views of backroad Ireland.

[@TheHikingRev]

I guess complaining wouldn’t make the trail easier. 😁

[@adamosman7284]

Irland is so beautiful country💚💚💚

[@TheHikingRev]

Yes, it is Adam.😁

[@grantgrow]

I like how the birds there are talented enough to carry a camera for you

[@TheHikingRev]

Irish birds are more talented than American birds. 😂

[@rrichardson53]

I’m so impressed by how green and pristine it looks there. Better weather this year (I’ll take cool rain over heat any time). Excellent video!

[@TheHikingRev]

Thank you, Rebecca.

[@Esther-ps3vx]

Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience. I love your videos; the quality is so good, and the music is top-notch. I wish I was as talented as you were and had the courage to go on such hikes. I admire you, and you give me hope. You are so lucky to have had such a great experience. I look forward to more videos. Good luck, and happy hiking!

[@TheHikingRev]

Thanks Esther. Again you’re so very kind. I’m glad that you’re able to come along with me on my journey.😁

[@ruthgoebel723]

What beautiful countryside and lovely people you are meeting along the way!

[@TheHikingRev]

Hey Ruth. Yes, the people are just as lovely as the countryside.😁

[@olegoathiking1962]

Good day to you Rev. Wherever you are today! Mosey-ing is a great way to hike unless you're trying to outrun a storm. 😅

[@TheHikingRev]

And top of the morning to you too. And I’ve had to outrun my share of storms on the Ireland Way.😁

[@Terraducky]

No two hikes alike! I wish I was hiking there with you, but this will do in the meantime. Safe travels, Rev! Get to it!

[@TheHikingRev]

Thank you very much. I’m glad that you’re able to come along with me.😁

[@LarryElliott-t7y]

Let’s get it!

[@TheHikingRev]

I bade adieu to mechanical inventions, determined to devote the rest of my life to the study of the inventions of God. - John Muir. Another great video Rev! Hand sheer your beard....ummm No! Thank you for the wonderful video!

[@TheHikingRev]

That’s a great quote from John Muir. 😁

[@billseay6399]

Loving every minute of it big guy thanks

[@TheHikingRev]

You’re quite welcome Bill. 😁

[@Agratefulman]

That music sure gets one's blood to flowing and feet to stepping.

[@TheHikingRev]

Yep. It’s very motivating. 😁

[@cmichaelhaugh8517]

I love the amazing stonework on those old bridges! Is the green of your surroundings really that intense or do you have the saturation tweaked a bit?

[@TheHikingRev]

Hey Michael. The stonework on those bridges are amazing. And yes, everything is so green over there.😁

[@acoeseviagens]

Lovely accent your friend, hard but nice 👣👣

[@TheHikingRev]

Believe or not…I understood him better than most. 😁

[@danielduesentriebjunior]

Field with sheep: Midges! Have you seen some deserted famine settlements so far? That's very depressing.

[@TheHikingRev]

Yes I have. And yes, it’s very depressing. 😢

[@danielduesentriebjunior]

@@TheHikingRev Maybe your ancestors migrated to the US then.

[@MikeRyder-ml2mb]

The trail provides... sounds like you could have gotten a free hair and beard cut if you wanted.✂

[@TheHikingRev]

Hey Mike. Yes, I think I missed a great opportunity. Eamon looked like a great sheep shearer. 😁
