picking up litter early one morning last week.  It's too bad we need people like these to keep the roads and footpaths cleaned.   We thank you!

placing new flowers in the flower box across from the pier.  There were two boxes at this site and more further down toward the centre of town.

donations

in aid for hospice this past Saturday.  Cars slowed down to give their donation to one of the guys holding a bucket.  If you didn't want to donate, you would just drive on by.

the market

Leghowney Country Market is located in  the Leghowney Community Hall which is not far from Donegal Town.  Every other Saturday the market is held and members sell their crafts, produce and baked goods.  The food they serve is all from the local area.  On their menu, they have a five mile fry which everything is within five miles locally.

those two loaves that you see are inflatable.  Hard to believe, they looked so real. :)

the tea man was hard to focus, he was always moving refilling tea mugs.
