Weekend in the country

This is lake Camagh, the nearest lake to my cottage. I call it "my lake" of course.

Next are some quirky items I found displayed in peoples front gardens. *A wooden donkey carrying two baskets of turf - the traditional fuel for the open fire.

*An entrance to a new house. It had a stream running across the front of the house so the owners made the entrance into a small bridge over the stream.

*Brightly painted farm equipment, a green water pump and some old cast iron pots

*Then I found this old picture of childhood sweethearts who grew up to be....Angie and Ed! ...So I had to take an "After" version

     I have to say they haven't changed a bit...(they are as crazy as ever) LOL!

 Da is still in hospital and in precarious health but in good spirits. I found this picture of Da and his family when he was about five years old
