CORK IN THE MORNING, BACK TO BALINATONA BY EVENING

The Story · August 1, 2019

View from the house...again, Ireland

Funny that we expected the worst as we left Cork for Ballinatona because we found a place, people and a dog that we absolutely adore.

AH, IRELAND…

The Story · August 2, 2019

View from the kitchen window

A sample of what community looks like here, where everyone takes care of everyone else. Such a lovely place to be!

BACK IN FIONA’S HOUSE

The Story · August 3, 2019

Irish cows, on the walk to Union Hall

We had returned to things we knew, from Fiona’s house to the Saturday Market to Saffi’s habits and the cows. It felt comforting.

WATER DAY, HOLY UNEXPECTED SHIT!

The Story · August 4, 2019

Fiona's floor gets flooded

A day, like so many, that could not be anticipated. The Last Wave comes to Ballinatona. It’s a water day!

CONVERSATIONS OF IRELAND

The Story · August 5, 2019

Beautiful green West Cork, Ireland

Post-flood, the day returned to normal, aside from the dehumidifiers humming. Lots of talking and thinking for Chloe and me, and some great food.

RHYTHM, PACING & WORDS AT LOUGH HYNE

The Story · August 6, 2019

Lunch spot, by Lough Hyne

Beautiful Lough Hyne, Ireland, and thinking about the future, our return to Vancouver and our home, and holding onto the bliss.

BUSY WITH FIONA’S STUFF

The Story · August 7, 2019

Crocosmia flowers that grow wild in Ireland

First the floor, now the freezer/frid. Things are falling apart…but not the weather or nature. It was an absolutely gorgeous day for the loop walk.
