Magali Rodriguez says that teachers and administrators at Bishop Amat Memorial High School in Upland forced her to follow strict rules to keep her from having a relationship with another girl and terrorized her for years. She also said that the school took steps to avoid her parents finding out that they were disciplining her for being gay (sic).

Dun Laoghaire

The view from our breakfast in the Forty Foot

For the most part on my recent trip to Ireland I was based in Dun Laohaire, just outside of Dublin. This is a place I have grown quite fond of and as the main purpose of the trip was to see family and friends and Dun Laohaire is very convenient for this. I have been here quite a few times now and I always enjoy. Here are some posts I have done on earlier visits:

One of the things I like the best when I am in Dun Laohaire is to walk along the sea and it is very nice for going on some lovely walks when it is not pouring down.

Dublin

When I was in Dun Laohaire I took the DART , a local train, in to the city center of Dublin to do some shopping. I mostly shopped and enjoyed some food and drink and did not do much sightseeing. I have done more of that earlier an if you are interested I have added some links to posts from previous visits.

I spent quite some time in the shops in Grafton street. The shop where I spent the most time was maybe the Disney store, I just love walking around there, as we do not have one where I live. Grafton Street not just known for shopping…

LP – Shaken

LYRIC

All night, sippin’ on a feelin’
Won’t lie, was nervous for this evenin’
Then you arrive

Oh god, why you gotta look so
So hot? Remembering your body on mine
I wanna cry

I, I knew that you’d be here tonight
But suddenly I’m paralyzed
Who’s she by your side?

She looks at you like I used to
And I’m just sitting in the corner
Sh-sh-shaken, sh-sh-shaken
I thought only I would get that smile
Now I’m just watching from the corner
Sh-sh-shaken, sh-sh-shaken

Oh no, feelin’ that vertigo
Slow row, feelin’ that swell of desire
Am I on fire?
Flashbacks rolling like a movie
Whiplash, she’s holding you instead of me
Is that your type?

I knew, I knew that you’d be here tonight
But I don’t know how it got so late
Just trying not to catch your eye
(See my face)

She looks at you like…

Colorado: Red Mountain Brewing

Laci's avatarMcGee Travel Tales

Colorado has a plethora of breweries and we actually visited two in Ouray. The first was for lunch, the second because of the name but more about that one later.

We enjoyed lunch on the dog friendly patio of Red Mountain Brewing right on the main street. They don’t have a large beer list and many of them at the time were pale ales and IPAs. Keltin and I typically don’t drink stuff that hoppy so we decided to get a glass each instead of a flight. I went with Everybody’s Ale – a nice crispy cream ale. Keltin had the Red Mountain No. 3 – a full bodied imperial red.

We got there right as they opened and since they weren’t too busy yet we were able to talk to our waiter a bit about what was good and he didn’t mind us taking our time to decide. His…
