the 966

bus coming through Bunbeg at 11:15 on its way to Dungloe.  Local Link provides a great service to the people who live in rural Ireland.  The bus, along with other bus services, are free with a travel pass.  Once you reach 65 you qualify.

rainbow

the first rainbow of 2022.  It rained most of the day (Sunday) and when it stopped the rainbow appeared.  It didn't last very long before it got dark again and the rain returned.

local library

Finally settled in our new place and now it's back to blogland. :)  This is our new local library, it is on the ground floor.  gteic @Gaoth Dobhair is a network of 30 innovation & digital hubs in locations throughout Ireland’s Gaeltacht areas.  Gaoth Dobhair is the Irish  for Gweedore.  Irish is spoken in this area by just about everyone.  The library is all in Irish so it will be a challenge to learn how to pronounce the words we see.  When we asked questions, the librarian switched to English so we could understand. :)  The people here are very friendly and helpful.

bunbeg

we are moving to Bunbeg.  The house that our flat is located in got sold this past January.  We decided we wanted to move instead of signing a new lease because there are some serious problems that needed to be addressed and the new owner didn't seem interested.  He bought this building without even looking at it which I thought was crazy. Who does that anyway?   Downstairs is an office like setup that has been vacate since we moved here.  Also being in a long lock down created its own problems for us too.  We were looking but couldn't view anything because of Covid.  Then this place came up and we went to see it and decided it would be a good move for us.  I'll be taking a break from blogging but will return with lots of new photos.  Have a great time blogging, taking photos, writing stories or whatever it is you do and enjoy.
