Skokie, IL
Spirit of Ireland

Ann is the perfect Yin to Con's Yang. (Or is it Yang to Con's Yin?) Compassionate and caring, she is a ray of Irish sunshine who kept us laughing with her dry wit and infectious sense of humor. She managed to keep a smile on her face no matter what, and instilled confidence in even the most unsure of hikers. We all counted on her to keep us fed and watered and treated to sweets. She was also the easy-going guide for those of us on the less challenging daily trek and the keeper of order amongst the troops. Ann knows the area well and has made so many friends along the way, (as a resident of Dingle and a seasoned guide) that each stop on our trip we felt surrounded by a sort of extended family. We could all use an Ann in our lives, but ... our loss is the next group's gain!
