We covered a bit of ground today. West coast back to east. Stayed away from cities for most part. Lovely stories about Fl after breakfast - host couple winters there. Her grandmother's advice in emergency "fill the tub". We've been filling our water bottles every day, just in case.
2 hours in locals pub tonight visiting w/ the 'publican'. Delightful - reminded us so much of Jay - reads and hears a lot - interesting ideas thoughts. Tried local cider - Bulmers I think. We passed the brewery (?) earlier today. PBS on tv Ken Burns 'West' ironic... Talk ran the gamut of guns, Irish language, law, sports (none of the games on TV the last week were Irish teams), famine & immigration (saw 'famine' boat as we came into New Ross - tiny. Apparently they do reenactments on it - too tired to go back down.) Mind full off lots of things - will take awhile to process. Sorting suitcases tonight 3/4s full of dirty clothes. Have to work purchases in. Mike sweater, hat, Kells tie, sippy cup, Jan pashmina shawl w/ shamrocks, AND 12 Celtic crosses! (Among other things...)
That's it for tonight. More tomorrow...
