the coffee wasn't bad 


saw this ad on a bus in Galway.  Gum on the ground is a problem in the city.

before and after

Last week when we were in Dungloe, I noticed the tree was cut down and a new fence was added in the back.  The metal pole was still in place though.

Bank of Ireland

closed on Oct 8th in Dungloe along with 88 other branches around the country.  Now if you need access to the bank services, the bank has a contract with An Post to cover those services.  They even took the ATM machine out which people were not happy about.  There are a few machines in stores that people can access.  Just more aggravation for people.  I wonder what will now become of this empty building.

Derrybeg Chapel

On the 15th August 1880 tragedy struck the parish of Gweedore, while parish priest Father James McFadden said Mass in a packed St Mary’s Chapel in Derrybeg. This is known in Gweedore as the great flood, while the Irish Times would describe the event as the Gweedore catastrophe.
