A True Irish Welcome

"Never have I ever felt a welcome such as this", is what I wrote on an Instagram reel after the first night of being in Listowel. Every bit is true, I have never been to a place where the entire community wrapped themselves around me with kindness and joy in the way the gracious folks of Listowel did. From the thoughtful welcome of the departing artists Mary and Sharon, to the meetup and tour with our gracious host Olive, to Lizzie and her sweet Cafe, to Mary and Matt welcoming us to the crowd of music goers at the local pub John B Keane's, to the cherry on top, local legend Mickey MacConnell singing his global hit "Only Our Rivers Run Free" and dedicating it to the two new artists (Tracy and I) in town. We both cried into our Guinness at the pub, overwhelmed with emotion for the beautiful song and gesture of great kindness. My jaw still hits the floor at the thought of these "strangers" doing this for us. Thank you Listowel, you are awesome!
