tractor

waiting for our bus yesterday, this tractor went whizzing by.  This area is usually conjested with traffic so you don't see tractors here very often.  It was a nice sunny day with an actual blue sky and you don't see that too often either.

memorial bench

James Anthony McGroary was the longest serving taximan in South Donegal for the last 40 years.  This bench was placed in his memory by his friends in the taxi rank.

the bench is located right near where the taxis park

a paint update

Ballybookies is no longer in the green and yellow building.  It is now vacant and getting a new paint job.  We happen to pass it one moring last week.

then on our way back in the afternoon, the painter was almost done

here's what it looks like a few days later.  Even the building on the left got an update too.

solar street bins

Killybegs just got two new solar street bins placed in town last week, these are compacting bins.  The first one is in front of the bank on Main St.  We first saw these when were in Ballina.  I guess you could call them smart bins. :)

the second one is down in the center of town at the Diamond

convenient neighbors

O'Hehirs Bakery and Little Mamma's Ice Cream Parlour, the perfect match!  We have been in O'hehirs and they have some great breads, desserts and coffee.  Haven't been in the ice cream place yet but I'm not a big ice cream fan.
